Days of Spring

The starkness of winter is left behind
In it's wake comes inbound spring
 every step with joyful  delight
She dressed herself with greenery
Putting on her finest dress
As her beauty is heightened the
Flowers poke their heads
 laughing, dancing with delight
Colors of floral explosion appear
as her sweet scented perfume fills the air.
Birds are returning to her warmth 
as she dances with the wind 
The winter blues have begun to lift 
Spring waltzes in on the incoming breeze.
