Notes About The Poem

Springtime Sonnet

I love many things about stunning spring like the small fledglings taking to the wing, as it's time for them to fly from their nest mother nature's great, we truly are blessed! A time for renewal and of rebirth, as green seedlings appear through the damp earth Tiny newborn lambs gambol in the fields, I adore everything each springtime yields Gold daffodils dance on a zephyr breeze, and cherry blossoms cascade from the trees I breathe in the scent of bluebell flowers, which raise their heads after sudden showers Our spirits rise after winter's dark days, for the spring season I've nothing but praise!
