Spring Morning

The cuckoo has just announced spring,
From outside my top floor bedroom window,
little birds tweet and sing from their hiding,
“Blue bells and daffodils and the end of snow!”

Day has cheered up with a clear blue sky,
A few white clouds moving across slow,
oak and acer sprouting leaves on the sly,
“Blue bells and daffodils and the end of snow!”

The jingle of bottles announce the milk van,
Newspaper and coffee and breakfast to go,
If anything brings cheer, spring morning can,
Blue bells and daffodils and the end of snow!”

Stretch of green fields with different shades,
A few farm houses, a road, some glades, 
My neighbour waves Hi from his open window,
“Blue bells and daffodils and the end of snow!”

Morning smells different from the day before,
the Lilies and Roses have bloomed some more,
I clear my mind of all strain and let them go,
Blue bells and daffodils and the end of snow!”

Thanks Michelle! Nature continues as like ever around us, while we are prisoners of our own habits!
