Springtime
Winter has vanished and spring has appeared
Leaving the harshness that once persevered.
The snows ice and sleet that stifled our way
Have all disappeared till some far off day.
Robins are building their nests in the trees
The springtime flowers enticing the bees.
The song of this thrush is first sung at dawn
While honeybees gather nectar on lawns.
The warm gentle breeze that blows from the west
Coaxes white cumuli onward their quest.
The yellow faces of Dandelions
Inhabit the landscape by the millions.
Life comes alive in this fairest season
Where springtime abounds neath the morning sun.
