Anacreontic Verse

The warmth is back
Bringing life
The wind in winter
Howls saddened by death
Now tickles the leaves
Dancing with butterflies
In fields of grass
Flowers in bloom
sweeten the air
Replacing the smell
Of death and despair
Streams once again flow
Babbling softly
Whispering stories
Of times long ago
As wind passes by
It listens
Taking stories 
Up to sky
Tales of such beauty
Clouds begin to cry
Nature is renewed
Forgetting yesterday
Summer is here
Wind again will play
