This poem describes the beauty of each season in Edo (old name for Tokyo) through 3 lines for each season - Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. Flowers bloom and trees grow beautifully in Spring; a hot summer day shows a pretty lake with fish and trees; red leaves fall prettily from trees reflected in the lake in Fall; and snow falls white on bare trees at the end of the year in Winter.

1. Beautiful Edo
By: Shono

2. Spring
Flowers bloom in Spring,
Beautiful as the seasons,
Spring is beautiful.

3. Summer
A hot Summer day,
A beautiful lake with fish,
Pretty trees grow now.

4. Fall
Red leaves falling down,
Pretty as beautiful trees,
The trees in the lake.

5. Winter
Snow falling down,
Trees so white as any snow,
The end of the year.
