Melodies On High- Andaree

Spring's alluring tune put butterflies in flight and make daffodils dance with delight, A gentle breeze, and leaves sigh Beneath azure sky. From trees on High Birdsongs dawn, As hummingbirds fly Seeking sweet nectar nearby, With lilacs and hyacinths* in sight, Spring's alluring tune put butterflies in flight * Hyacinths is 3 syllables on HMS
