Spring's Debut

Spring sends scented breezes when Winter's grip eases, though water still freezes, and snows renew. While songbirds were singing, the sleigh bells stopped ringing, icicles stopped clinging, and winds withdrew. A snowman melts away on a tepid Spring day and pools by the walkway; bid it adieu. With wild rivers flooding, pussy willows budding and prairie grouse thudding, it's Spring's debut. As the green buds unfold, it's a sight to behold, poised upon Spring's threshold, life starts anew.
