A Springtime Bloom
A springtime bloom with golden hue
Swaying 'neath clouds with fluffy plume
Symbols of hope and all things new
A springtime bloom
They dare to rise in winter's gloom
As their trumpets come into view
One season fades, as one's abloom
Petals glisten with morning dew
Weaving beauty on springtime's loom
They always appear right on cue
A springtime bloom
