Spring

Missing image
The wind swept passed my window
And the leaves they swayed in time
To the coming day that springs anew
In its spring coat so sublime

The clouds above were snowy white
Like wool fleeced from a lamb
And the sun behind was peaking through
To greet the waking land

I arose from off my bed right then
And ran to meet the morn
The soaring trees and singing birds
Where little ones were born

The green grass sprung a new life to
It danced to natures call
And I was there that brand new morn
To stand and catch it all

The perfume of the emerging flowers
Where bees were buzzing round
And croaking frogs upon the rocks
Around my pond were found

A lizard makes a morning dash
To hide withing the grass
And butterflies they flutter by
Upon the winds that pass

So I sit down in my garden chair
And still my thoughts a while
To be a part of springs new life
And its sounds that make me smile

And a magpie comes and sings to me
And he winks a knowing eye
For he knows the time has come to see
A new world by and by

    This is so beautifully written, and it really makes me yearn for that warm spring of new life. Especially now when it is so bitterly cold here. Thanks for reminding me of what is soon to come around again. Blessings, Patty

    Hi Condor

    Beautiful as always. Is it Spring where you are?
    Can't wait for our turn.
    I know you like birds and a fellow I know just wrote this about birds in a season.

    Hope you like it.

    The meter and syllabic count in this(yours) is nothing short of amazing!
