Reawakening - a Dizain

The waxing sun of April shines Where once the woods of winter pined; Now trilliums and columbines Exult; where snow once lay, now find Sweet-scented honeysuckle twined. Where rime ran rife, where cold was keen, Unfurling ferns of freshest green Now burst beneath the budding trees, And fragrant flowers of eglantine Are bending in the brimming breeze.

As always, Line, many thanks: my first attempt with this form, and it took a good deal of work to fine-tune. I hope it isn't too "singsong", but I couldn't resist the alliteration.
