A tribute to end of winter's gloom.

Spring 

just the faintest breezes from a sky clear blue 

as the sun starts to slowly rise 

a fresh beginning on a brand new day 

part of nature's early surprise 

scents of newly turned earth in the morning air 

as a farmer works there in his field 

tilling the soil for it's time to prepare 

for the abundance it's expected to yield 

while along the streams and waterways 

wildflowers are starting to grow 

the quiet simple beauty of these days 

make a wonderful nature show 

budding trees provide leaves of green 

their limbs majestically raised to the sky 

providing the essence to keep our air clean 

while clouds float slowly by 

topping off a wonderful time of year 

where tranquillity and joy's the thing 

with their chirping songs of happiness 

the birds in chorus sing 

for changing seasons come to pass 

and a newness they all bring 

but the freshest, sweetest time of all 

is a time simply known as Spring
