Spring Is Here
When snowmen melt all about, Spring is here,
and yellow daffodils sprout—Spring is here.
When the first songbirds appear on the scene,
there is little room for doubt—Spring is here.
When sap rises up in sugar maples,
and the bears leave dens throughout—Spring is here.
When Japanese cherry blossoms bloom pink,
and spawning smelts swim without—Spring is here.
When wasps and bees begin buzzing around,
your first barbecue cookout—Spring is here.
When hummingbirds and butterflies take wing
and ants mark out trails to scout—Spring is here.
When migrating songbirds start heading home,
and honking geese shout it out—Spring is here.
When springtime notes dance across Emile's page,
and put Winter blahs to rout—Spring is here.
