Spring Draws Nigh

Warm winds rid the land of snow, as daffodils start to show. And as cold spells ebb and wane, winter's Ice Queen ends Her reign. Leaves unfurl on bush and tree; ice breaks up, and creeks flow free. With each dawn, the sun shines strong; night shrinks, the day stretches long. Winter is fleeing the scene; it'll soon be time for sunscreen. But that's a small price to pay; to get the kids out to play. Grey clouds on a field of blue; water snowdrops popping through. And songbirds soar in the sky; all sure signs that Spring draws nigh.
