Longing For Spring
At long last the snow melts and goes away
Leaving the ground pressed flat and forlorn
Sun’s tender heart warms up the earth today
Bringing back life the world is now reborn.

See the birds take flight and renew their song
Watch the buds break free and stretch for the light
Warm earth presses forth all that does belong
Green lush tips push out with all of their might.

Soon flowers will dance upon the light breeze
Trees flourish in blossoms and many leaves
Animals emerge and scamper among trees
New life awakens; everyone believes

Spring has finally come; brought with it hope
It is how we survive Winter and cope.
