Song of Spring

The melody of spring is in the air

long awaited, at last it arrives

softly singing its warm greeting

in a gentle breeze

enticing me to rhyme my poetry

with its delightful tune


Waking up from winter slumber

bare branches sprout with promise

suddenly flourishing in diverse greens 

and a mantle of flowers 

covering the valleys and fields

      

Heaven’s moisture from above

washing away winter’s cold misery

a blessing so profound

that no power can surpass
