At Long Last

Last snow-patch recedes
Chill's memory faint
Birds chirp before dawn
Windows flung open
Whites hang from the line

Nights are shorter
Days are longer
Weather's toasty
Flowers yawn, stretch

Morning's dew
Noon's sweat-drop
Evening's breeze

Here at 
long last: 

Spring!

My favorite line - 'flowers yawn, stretch' - so glad spring has arrived for you!

So happy that spring has arrived there, finally! I think our spring arrived a bit earlier...but it'll leave earlier, too. Enjoy! and a blessed Passover to you my friend :)

End of the dreary winter and into the Spring. The long awaited season of life. Best wishes for the contest.
