Spring Lasses

March is the first to arrive on the scene. She sees Winter leaving and blows him a kiss, And then she starts in to paint the world green. Even though March has brought us such bliss, Spring will get even better than this! April comes next, summoning showers. That rain falls refreshingly from skies above. Soon we hear birds and smell fragrant flowers. Nature's rebirth we are witnesses of When April surrounds us with signs of God’s love. Butterflies flutter and baby chicks hatch. Sun gives more strength day by day. Our next lovely lass has nary a match, For she is the merriest, with the name May. Be happy when she’s on her way! June is the fourth and the last girl of spring, Distinctive because she’s the one To finish the season that makes our hearts sing. Even then, her work in not done. She ushers in Summer and welcomes new fun! An oldie for 'A BRIAN STRAND PREMIERE no 1207' Poetry Contest

It didn't matter Andrea with this beauty. She loved it and gave it a high placing which it truly deserved. I loved the personalization of the months. My May birth month is almost over. Congrats Andrea!

Dear Andrea, I like the way you described the uniqueness of each spring month! My mother used to say, "April showers bring May flowers." (She didn't live in Florida then. LOL) Beautifully written. Congratulations!

This is very beautiful. I literally could feel the cool Spring breeze on this as I'm in the middle of the field. I'm on the grass and I can smell the flowers while I'm witness their petals detach from their stems afloat in air ballet and the sun's rays as ribbons of life-giving gold.

Hello Andrea, this shows neatly the hope and frivolity and I suppose the perseverance of life in those Spring months that we experience, lovely job here, Joe..'

I forgive you, though it's too early to be thinking about good weather. I thought about good weather the other day and it snowed. Seriously, this is a seriously good poem. LOve, daver

It's an excellent poem of depicting the changes of the Nature with own gradual motions stage by stage. Winning poem indeed, I feel. Good luck in the contest. Loved always, my lovely friend, bl

Oh, yes, I remember all these notions from earlier climes. But here in the PNW, there is great hesitation. All the things you describe occur, yet there's the chill and gray whose departure we daily urge in patience, as we await the 4th of July, our third of four seasons. The other one got lost somewhere. Enjoyed this.
