Softly Into Spring


Spring calls softly from the darkness
She bathes the land in light


To lure us from our slumber
At the end of Winter's night


It's in the whisper of the wind
Her perfume scents the air


Colours appear overnight
Full of dash and dare


Hot and cold play hide and seek
In league with sun and shade


The flowers carry on as planned
Their costumes have been made


Leaves unfurl and petals twirl
Birds trill their serenade


No one can resist the lure
Of a Spring parade


What started as a whisper
Soon becomes a roar


The flowers dance, the music plays
A Spring song I adore.
