Spring

Like awakening from a long nap Spring begins to slowly stretch Opening her eyes to the dawn Happy that another winter gone Smiling she draws her brush Across the warming earth Life appears in colors sweet Following eyes her pictures greet From bud the flower blooms Life is birthed with happy cries Gray bones now turn a leaf Doubters bend to find a new belief
