Clear blue sky Just a slight early morning chill in the air But the hedgerows tinged with fresh green Highlighting the gold of the daffodils Bluetits flit and flutter And here and there the early bee My seed trays showing signs of life Of what is yet to be My south country hills Have come alive After winters deadly hold Daffodil and crocus Now in colors oh so bold Lovers walk now hand in hand Now winter gloom has passed Sad grey faces now tinged with a pink glow Spring gladness Reborn at last
