Welcome Spring

When seeds of hope are sown with love and care, 
And buzzing bees lured by blooming buds' fragrance, 
Lush palettes of green replace fields as yet bare, 
Farmer's eyes reflect harvest hues in vibrance;
Unfurling of buds to new blossoms declare
Arrival of spring to its exuberance;
Verdant valleys burgeon with fresh flowers bright, 
Chirping birds in meadows a sight of delight.
