Ah, Spring

Ah, Spring my soul you do delight
and smells of the fresh greenery
with the tranquil sounds of the night.

No more does winter's cold us bite
making folks tug scarfs and scurry
Ah, Spring my soul you do delight.

The silvery moon shines so bright
setting alight the scenery
with the tranquil sounds of night.

Life reaffirms with buds so tight
and chicks with down so feathery
Ah, Spring my soul you do delight.

Flowers a most colourful sight
tumbling down the rockery 
with the tranquil sounds of night.

Lambs frolicking with great delight
as magpies screech with mockery.
Ah, Spring my soul you do delight
with the tranquil sounds of night.
