It Might As Well Be Spring

IT MIGHT AS WELL BE SPRING

Across the heath neath cerulean sky
All still, in brief expectant breathless pause
Impending vernal change of season nigh
Awaits fulfill of pre-condition clause

Yet bracken lace and grass a tawny match
Though warmer tint from sun that elevates
A song bird now essaying dulcet snatch
Of symphony that she anticipates

Jade canopy of chiffon will inhale 
The blessed Vapour that sustains all life *
Which soon will burst in wild expansive gale
Of growth and affluence of verdure rife

Now Nature’s resurrection time is right
Her signal shall go forth: ‘Let there be light!’

After reading this, I'm now running curious to listen to the song. But I am sure I will come back and say that this has outshined it :)
