"Spring drew on...and a greenness grew over those brown beds, which, freshening daily, suggested the thought that Hope traversed them at night, and left each morning brighter traces of her steps." —Charlotte Brontë


Spring heeds His voice,
Prepared to rejoice…

Spring showers wash away each fear,
Singing light across the new year…

Spring invites souls to the blessing,
As sun sings hope so impressing…

Spring whispers of His amazing,
Silencing the past, always praising…

Spring knows the time has come,
The dark of winter will succumb…

Spring risks the disgrace, the shame,
As the wind begins to play its game…

Spring, mostly alive with pleasure,
Restores the spirit’s joy, a treasure…

Spring erases all the tired,
Bringing new, it is inspired…

Spring’s smile, it is assured,
Brings peace that has endured…

Spring listens to His command,
Spreading glory, so great and grand…

Spring is God’s grace poured out,
On the heart who refuses to doubt!

Hey Gina your poem beautifully captures the essence of spring and its symbolic significance. The imagery used to depict the arrival of spring, from the showers washing away fears to the sun singing hope, is vivid and evocative. The repetition of "Spring" at the beginning of each line adds to the rhythmic flow of the poem and reinforces the theme of renewal and rebirth.
