The snow has gone and winters work is done Song birds are singing building nests in trees Earths axis turns and brings long days with sun Bright daffodils sway gently in the breeze. Bright coloured flowers growing everywhere On trees the buds and leaves will soon be seen New born lambs in fields run without a care The grass in fields and lawns is now so green. The landscape canvas looks so fine and grand Poets and artists capture springs great joy A masterpiece by our God's skillful hand His stunning artwork we can all enjoy. Enjoy spring its time for celebration As our earth goes through rejuvenation. Written 11th March 2021

"A masterpiece by our God's skillful hand His stunning artwork we can all enjoy". The spring's magic is wonderfully captured in your sonnet, Tom .... ! A real celebration of Nature's beauty with the arrival of spring.
