Sweet Long-Awaited Spring
It’s here—sweet long-awaited spring.
New blooms smell lovely; skies are blue.
The trilling birds are on the wing.
Earth has awakened; life is new.
New blooms smell lovely; skies are blue.
Kids dash outside to have a fling.
Earth has awakened; life is new.
This time exudes a unique zing.
Kids dash outside to have a fling.
The joys of spring seem overdue.
This time exudes a unique zing.
Who could resist the springtime view?
The joys of spring seem overdue
for those who love what warm days bring.
Who could resist a springtime view
when not just birds but people sing?
For those who love what warm days bring,
the trilling birds are on the wing
when not just birds but people sing.
It’s here—sweet long-awaited spring.
