Spring Is Coming Soon

Snowflakes cease as snowdrops rise
 Peeking out at azure skies
 Raindrops fall upon the lake
 Iris soon in blooms awake
 New blooms burst forth every day
 Gerberas now are here to stay

 I hear the soothing song of spring
 Sweet the sound  bird songs bring

 Carnations in hues of red
 Offer color to garden beds
 Magnolias, what fragrance  they imbue
 Inspiring a feeling of romance too
 Now look, the baby blue eyes dance
 Giving hearts a desire for romance

 Soft the flutter of the wings 
 Of butterflies in the spring
 On the breeze they gently float
 Now I'll watch them as I dote
                        ..
