Bright and Elegant
Bright And Elegant
(Domino Rhyme)
Watching the rising morning sun
With heaven feeling very close
The beauty of spring does unfold
Beautiful everything grows
Joyful whispering nature knows
The fragrant air is fresh and clean
Nature spreading beauty and cheer
And spring has taken a strong hold
All the song birds entered the scene
The tulips burst forth bright and bold
Wild roses bearing elegant blooms
With vibrant splendor far and near
At last gone is the winters cold
All the spring planting has been done
Now pleasantly warm the wind blows
All of spring colors are displayed
