-ode To Spring-

The telephone rang, I answered cheerily When the niceties were over, the voice inquired "How is it going with the gardening today" quite sincerely I could not refrain and out of exuberance, desired to extol the virtues and due attribute to the joy that Spring is bringing. The Birds are chirping away gleefully abound at their playing rejoicing the rebirth of Spring today and now have more hours to bask in the sun That's the glory and joy that Spring is bringing. The Winter's gloom of body and mind is now done the Trees and Shrubs, in the breeze can't restrain their greeting, The Peaches are busy Peaches-sing the Figs are Figging away and the Apricots are buckling in their blooming. The Guava's graciously budding and Guava-ing the whole year as with the Parsley's and Celery's luscious greenery, The Paw-paw's are Paw-pawing, the Avocado-pear so generous in their giving, through-out the whole year, It's amazing, all the joy that Spring has sprung. The Quince's are heavily wincing the Mango's are flowering and ready to Mango-ing the Banana's are Banana-ing and the Plum's, purplish in their Plum-ming so too are the Tamarillos heavy in Tree-tomato-ing While the white and mauve blossoms of the Yesterday Today and Tomorrow's, soften's the most perturbed mind with their heady aromatic scent and the Jasmines exudes a fragrance extraordinary, As with the Clivia's in saffron pride, glistening in sun-lit dew. What an awesome, wondrous sight to see Mother-nature's beauteous, creative delight blending so, with the Omnipotent Creator's panoramic scene Set so, that we the Immortal Mortal care-takers bear in mind that His Garden and the giving Spring, is of the sharing Kind.
