Spring

Unleash your slumbered passions
For all the world to see.
Embrace Spring in all its glory
To let the dregs of winter be.
Move with purpose and intention...
Making bold of what's to come.
Lay some groundwork for achievement...
Hear the call of feral drums.
Spring demands of us a reckoning
As winter's cruelty fades away...
Giving germ and seed to possibility...
We are bound for better days.
Who among us hasn't welcomed
The flowers as they bloom?
Who among us doesn't sanctify
The end of winter's gloom?
There is no argument one can offer...
So let the vernal warmth in hearts dwell
As it would be a cruel trick on Nature
To not make something of ourselves.

               The End

Words of wisdom... that I certainly have never associated with Spring before, but will now take under consideration, to let the warm weather unchill my heart. Thanks, David!
