Spring is Coming

When winter's chill begins to fade,
And snow gives way to green,
The earth awakes from its long shade,
To a scene so serene.

The first crocus peeks through the snow,
A herald of the dawn,
Telling all that soon, the glow
Of spring will be reborn.

Trees whisper in the warming air,
Buds ready to unfurl,
A promise hanging everywhere,
A new world to unfurl.

Birds return with songs to sing,
In skies of softest blue,
Their melodies a vibrant ring,
As life begins anew.

Rivers thaw and gently flow,
Their whispers tell the tale,
Of winter's end, and so,
Spring's colors unveil.
