Tulips

T ulips in bloom, aligned in a row

U sing our eyes to see the beauty they show.

L et them burst forth with bright petals so bold,

I n various colors, a sight to behold.

P erfumed fragrances now fill the air,

S pring has arrived, there's signs everywhere!

Yes around here tulips are early harbingers of spring. The tourists were here looking for them last week. Too early this year, it has been wet and cool. But today the sun is out and so are the tulips. Congratulations on your win. Love, Joyce

I love this happy song, Ralph. Good rhythm, meaning you literally have a "spring" in your step?
