Why Love Spring?
Perhaps it’s the position of the sun
Its direction now slightly changed
Offering a new perspective of fun
And it’s the recede of winter snow from the earth
The relief of endless shoveling and wearing of boots
And stirring of rebirth
And the tracking of soil with muck under heel
It’s the hope of blossoms making an appearance on the trees
The vision of endless flowers blooming with appeal
The ever-tenuous advance of the tulips tips in the March breeze
The promise of warmer weather
Emerald pastures emerging where there was brownness
Baby birds snuggled in their feathered retreat
It’s the Easter holiday and new apparel with shinny shoes
It’s the arrival of animals that once lay fast asleep
It’s the vision of hope and change to bring us cheer
And the laughter while digging in your basket for those yellow peeps
Why love spring?
It’s in the air
