It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Springtime

It’s beginning to look 
            a lot like Springtime
          Everywhere I go 

          The grass is now green
            no mud in between
          Soon-it’ll-be-long-enough to mow 

          It’s beginning to look
            a lot like Springtime
          Flowers are in bloom

          Yellow daffodils
            Tulips always thrill
          Get-out-of-your-stale old room

          It’s beginning to look 
            a lot like Springtime
          There’s-a-certain-something in the air

          Couples are holding hands
            strolling along the sand  
          The-time-is-ripe for-a love affair

This is one I wish I had thought to write before you beat me to it!

Actually, Trixie stopped by and spilled the beans. You ought to sue her for ... for... what, I don't know. But you ought to sue her anyway! Smiles, Gershon

I will have that tune in my head all day now, but since your prose is so charming, I forgive you :)

What can I say? I wouldn't want to remove the tune from your head, Michelle. I'm very conservative; removal would be too invasive for me... Happy Easter to you! :) gw
