When the cold, harsh winter has given its last breath,
When the sky above shows life instead of death,
When the claws reaching to the frozen sky become decorated with leaves,
When the animals -long in hiding- scurry from trees,

Sing the birds; the season has come.
Prettiest look nature does hold.
Rejoices the Earth, her color winsome.
Idyllic her beauty, pretty as gold.
Famous Poem
A bursting into greenness;
A waking as from sleep;
A twitter and a warble
That make the pulses leap:
Winter fights to stay.
Sweet Spring always wins her way.
Flowers bloomed today!
Spring brings happiness
Flowers, songbirds, and green grass.
God's love on display.
The air is cool, the breeze is light.
The clouds in the sky are fluffy and white.
The flowers open to show their bright faces,
Famous Poem
My mind lets go a thousand things
Like dates of wars and deaths of kings,
And yet recalls the very hour--
'T was noon by yonder village tower,
Green is spring,
Bright, fresh, and new.
Yellow is the sun,
Crescent of colours
Arching high above our heads.
Sunshine brings us hope.
Famous Poem
To what purpose, April, do you return again?
Beauty is not enough.
You can no longer quiet me with the redness
Of little leaves opening stickily.
Melancholy moods,
shiny jazz and rainy blues.
April sings her tunes!
The pitter patter
Sound of the heavenly rain
Raises novel hope
Famous Poem
Their faint "honk-honk" announces them,
The geese when they come flying north;
Above the far horizon's hem
From out the south they issue forth.
