Goodbye To Winter

A last hurrah of snow and ice Winter's farewell, a parting sting. But waiting there to take her place The welcome arms of coming spring. All around life is stirring A reawakening mother earth. The warming soil rejuvenating, Bringing days of colour, and rebirth. Short cold days, soon forgotten As the sun sits higher in the sky. Oh, the joy of changing seasons Cherished each, as they pass by.
