Breath of Life

The winter's chilling wind is past
The world's awakening at last
And from the mounts, where there was snow
Come rushing streams that overflow

The streams make all the fields turn green
Bright blossoms everywhere are seen
And in the grass and in the trees
Are graceful birds and busy bees

This lustrous beauty makes me sing
I thank my King for each new spring
As spring's light breezes swiftly roll
The breath of life now fills my soul

Congratulations Faith. There is excellent cadence in your poem. Without seeing the title of your poem at first hand I would have guessed it correctly from your vivid descriptions and the message you have conveyed. Cheers - Gary
