Spring

Spring has come; Spring is here, ‘Tis the season, the time of year, When all across the northern Earth There’s life renewed, as well new birth. No season can compare nor can one bring The splendor of life, like the time of Spring. Though winter tries to hang around To keep so cold the frozen ground For its crystal art and flakes of white, To be preserved, its wondrous sight, Spring has sprung in sheer defiance, Since with life, Spring has alliance. Mother Nature has rested long, Quiet’s been the robin’s song During winter’s hush of crystal down Draped over life’s dormant brown. But with nature’s stirring, waking yawning, Winter fades into Spring’s new dawning. The Earth is changing, slowly warming, Like a metamorphosis transforming, As earth’s frozen cocoon melts away, For Spring to colour the winter's grey; Like a canvas just brown and white In transformation to colours bright. A brand new world is upon the scene, Winter’s whitewash now budding green, As Spring unfolds, the curtain draws On a frozen wonder as winter thaws Under the sun's rays. shining stronger Through daylight hours lingering longer. Melted, crystal clouds spill their overflow Onto the waiting, waking Earth just below, Creating an atmosphere of enchanted mist That when the sun's warmer rays've kissed, Spectrums of colours over the Earth, high, Arc as rainbows in splendor across the sky. Spring's cleansing rains prepare expecting Earth, Making it fresh and clean for all coming new birth. With the dormant stage of winter lost to the past, A new stage of life's arrived for many months to last. Everywhere, life is springing up around, Evolving is a new wonder, one so profound. The meadows turn a plush and velvet green, With rainbow dipped flowers added to the scene, Drawing in the busy bees, offering nectar, sweet, To make their honey from, for their young to eat. The forest is a bustling with creatures on its floor To welcome family newborns, in preparation for. High among the trees, many birds by the pair Are building nests anew as their songs fill the air. All the sleeping trees have awakened too; Are busy growing foliage, all fresh and new And the little seedlings all want to try, Like their parent trees, to reach and touch the sky. Winter is a wonderland in its own right With nature in its slumber all dressed in white, But the wonderland of Spring is one profound, As nature is awakened with new life all around. Spring exhibits the greatest show on Earth, The true essence of life, the miracle of birth. Thee Master of Creation with His Master Hand, With His Touch Divine, all across the land; Thee Master Artist with His Magic Strokes, With His rainbow palette, new life He invokes Through His Breath of Life and by His Divine Love Paints earth in 'living' colour, there is no equal of. But Spring in all its splendor with miracles abounding, God's Masterpiece of Life, immeasurably astounding, Can't compare to God's Love, the Sacrifice He made, Offered for us His only Son to suffer and be slayed For our souls to be cleansed of sin by the Blood of His Son, That we would have Eternal Life, each and every one.
