I have always loved the heralding of spring, <br />When the spell of youth is cast upon everything. <br />Gardens everywhere awaken from their sleep, <br />As the sun, from behind the clouds, does peep. <br /> <br />Leafy green shoots begin to sprout. <br />Flowers begin to pop their heads out. <br />Yellow daffodils stand proud and tall, <br />But, sadly, are gone in no time at all. <br /> <br />The sweet smell of blossom on the trees, <br />Wafts down from above on the gentle breeze. <br />Buttercups and daises are abundant everywhere <br />And the buzz of flying insects fills the warm air. <br /> <br />The season heralds a bright new dawn. <br />Baby birds and animals are being born. <br />The days are beginning to get progressively longer <br />And the sun's rays are beginning to shine stronger. <br /> <br />There's a sense of hope at this time of year, <br />Bringing with it, some much needed cheer. <br />It's heartening to know that summer is around the corner, <br />When the weather will grow increasingly warmer.<br /><br />Angela Wybrow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/spring-new-beginnings/
