The Meaning Of Spring

The Meaning Of Spring


Spring comes in all its splendour
to bring new life into the world after
the darkness and desolation of winter.


It is like a river that flows
once again after the cold and frost,
in the warmth of the sun.


The world begins to
teem with life.
There is new hope
for a new beginning.


Spring is like a flower
with a passion for love
unfolding its petals to
attract bees, butterflies and birds
to amuse in the brightness of the sun.


To the poet Spring
is like an evergreen tree
where birds sing and hatch
for years and years.
And man relishes
the sight of his progeny
under the shade and bows
of its branches.
