CHILDREN OF SPRING

Spring spreads out her parasol
 In April, June – always May;
Invites the children of her garden
Come with her to play today.

Yellow Daffodil stands straight up
 Announcing Spring with his horn;
Spring arriving! See! Spring now here!
Smile!  Not the time to look forlorn.

Jonquil quite often mistaken
For her cousin – bright Daffodil;
So she spreads out her sunny dress
To smile upon the windowsill.

Quick! Open up the garden gate
In rushes Poppy - loves the sun;
Leaves to wander rolling hills
Wears orange bowties – riot of fun.

Tulips gather in the garden
From a land so far away,
With wooden shoes and silver skates,
Sunbeams and rainbows want to play.

Primrose wears her best party dress
Ruffles of purple, pink or gold
She laughs at storms of ice or snow –
Little child but oh so bold.

Thoughtful Pansy sends out greetings
To her playmates missed in the snow;
Her sweet face mirrors her feelings
Open smile sets her eyes aglow.

Bachelor Button – proud as punch –
To be the season’s sparkling bling;
Blue as the sky – rolling oceans –
Sapphire gem – the heart of Spring!

Come back sleepy Forget-Me-Not
So shyly blinking through Spring rain
Laughing when you sly wink at us
From sleep we welcome you again.

Sweet Pea clambers up a trellis –
Tomboy – climbing her delight -
Explores plain, old, wooden fences
Trailing blossoms – lavender – white.

Lily of the Valley child –
Graceful arms wear bracelets of bells;
Listen closely when the wind blows
Springtime’s story in song she tells.

Many children Spring brings to the garden –
Too many to mention all here;
But in her bright smile she pardons -
Loves rhymes and cheer so like Shakespeare.
