Gleams over the dense city streets.

My petite blushing rose
come turn your face towards me.
Ignore yon flitting and buzzing pests

dance amongst your soft and silky leaves

Yellow trumpets set to blare,
'Neath them growing, little snowdrops,
Announcing spring is in the air.

Spring arrives to steal the...

Who are these sad sacks?
Who are these dullards?
Who are these...
