Sensational Spring

Spring's arrived at last, she wears her green dress
as I go rambling on lush verdant hills
This season's so special I will confess
I pick some beautiful gold daffodils
their xanthic colour relieves any stress
after depressing days of winter chills
Fluffy newborn lambs gambol in the fields
I love the rebirth that spring always yields

Jenna Logan Date: 2/20/2021 10:47:00 AM That's a very springy little lamb, gamboling among the daffodils. Makes me yearn for warmer weather, but not for lamb chops.
