Breath of Spring Air

Melting snow, Cool breeze, Crowded crows diving in a row, Return of the unfriendly bees, Colorful rainbow in the sky, And the strange songs of the talkative parrot; These are signs that Spring is around the corner. Again, she has defeated Queen Winter, With that incredible show in the parking lot. She is now wearing the crown and three ostentatious rubies; Oh my golly! She can also poise better than all of the beauties Gathered during the Ms. Universe beauty pageant. Sigh of Lent, Palm Sunday, Cheerful children at play, Green gardens decorated with confetti, Happy humming birds flying high, And the young grand-mothers in bikini; These are hints that the celebration Will commence early this spring. One duck is already being trailed by an offspring, Meanwhile, the zebras are being chased by one peckish lion, Which can no longer run like a supersonic train. Amidst all of that, somebody is going to have fun.
