Magical Spring
With gleefulness, we wait for spring to show-
as winter slowly fades away each year.
Enough of weather with cold temps and snow;
we're set to welcome sprouting vernal cheer
from sleeping trees and plants beneath the glow
of warmer sun and longer days that clear
the way to revel in the joys of spring
with vibrant blossoms and sweet birds that sing.
Soon, verdant leaves from wakened buds will sway
and dance amid the soothing, gentle breeze,
as pansies and forsythia make way
to paint fine pastel art with hues that please,
while tireless birds, with grass and twigs, crochet
their nests to fill with life among the trees.
Entrancing springtime plans and shapes its days
to bring us gifts of rebirth that amaze.
