Only In Spring

A hint of charm is in the air With lilacs, daffodils... how rare, When March whiffs her floral perfume Leaves gleaming in elegant bloom: The youthful star a plate of gold As winter ends... I do behold, How garlands in their finest hue Explode on countryside anew: O robins drift by as they trill A chirp, a note warbling goodwill; For only spring adorns new rite With a promise of Hope's delight Late November Contest of Brian Strand Re-post 11/18/2018
