I Welcome Spring

There is a smell in the air As the new western breezes blow One can almost feel a warmth With a sense of rebirth Just around the bend I smile today with this feeling Knowing that tomorrow is but Only a day away and spring Knocks upon winter’s door Ready to be greeted Emancipated feelings Overpower the bundled forms As winter garments are shed As eyes widen to the sun As hands plant new seeds My heart, along with seeds Now prepares for spring As it will bask in the sunshine Of nourishment and soak In the rains of growth
