The Spring Mood

As spring leaps forward expectedly
Cardinals sing a familiar song;
Announcing birth of season’s new
Perched in trees where they belong.

Hyacinths bloom graciously 
Expressing their blue sincerely;
Coloring fields that once were white
They only visit once a yearly.

Spots of snow melt slowly
Revealing peridot grass underneath.
Drenched sod cold and wet
Scents the air with raw heath. 

Children play rambunctiously
Exploring blooming fields in awe
Seeing colors that never were
They can't seem to process it all.

Cool winds cresses the skin
For there is still a vacant space;
Arms of affairs that held so tight 
No longer here to embrace.

As spring leaps forward expectedly 
Hearts begins to blush,
And blossom for coming affairs
Making the soul ever lush.
