Bring
me Spring.
Show me signs
Winter has lost
February’s frost.
Let days lengthen
and strengthen.
Bring me
Spring!

Cold
get’s old!
Winter’s great
for a while but
I wait with a smile
for Spring to ring
in. So I 
scold the
cold.

Faint
Spring paint --
First sign of
yellow on a
goldfinch so mellow,
still garbed today
in Winter’s
gray faint
paint.

Hark,
a lark
in the park
sings so sweetly.
Chickadees chatter:
“Hey you, what’s the
matter, Spring
sparks the 
park.”

Thanks Andrea. I love to use rhyme even when not "required" if it adds value. It does increase the degree of difficulty, especially in a form like this one.
