At this splendid time of year Awaited spring settles here, Through winter I've yearned, Pining away until it returned. When snow melts in the passes And green comes to grasses And daffodils bloom over the hills I am brimmed with rosy thrills. I spied a robin from the window And saw lambs in the meadow, There is a sweetness in the air As spring blossoms with a flair. While the fruit trees bud so do I, My inspired self is feeling spry, My footsteps are a little lighter, My personality grows brighter. When frigid winter finally flees And trees sprout new leaves And cheery birds begin to sing I marvel at the glow of spring. With spring's burst I get giddy I may whistle and dance a ditty Cause hope rises to a new high With the bluing of a cloudless sky. I'm just a springtime ding-a-ling, It makes me giggle and sing, Happy heart strings go zing-zing And my refreshed spirit wings. In no other season of the year Am I filled with so much cheer, On my face a silly grin you'll see When spring blooms inside of me. ©Written by: Kenneth J.
