Springtime Air
Come follow me, I'll lead you where
The days are fine and nights are fair;
Where fields of clover, lush and green,
Will visit you within this scene --
As March inhales the springtime air.
So come with me and we shall share
The freshness springtime can ensnare,
As fields of flowers thus convene.--
Come follow me...
Springtime's approach to which we're heir
Will bring about winter's repair,
Where we shall witness sights serene
And glory in that to be seen.
No other season can compare.
Come follow me...
