Visions of Springtime
My eyes scan the emotion to cause my heart to be light around Valentine's Day
As l watch people searching for that gift to show love is in the air and here to stay
And about this time the weather starts to ease and the sun lingers more enhancing our dreams
As March brings soft rain and brisk winds to blow away remnants of wintery things
A new season begins from buds of new growth casting colors of rainbows drifting down streams
Watching slowly at first to insure that winters really gone, listening to a new song
from the breeze as it strokes raindrops that sings
Then Easter arrives and folks change their lives, with new outfits
of bright colors to style
As gardens are planted, flowers burst in full bloom and mother
nature again spreads her smile
Outdoor life has begun as we baste in the sun and small creatures run rampant in dance
Chasing each other around in much haste, in troths of an early romance
I watch all these things, through visions of spring
Rejoicing at what this new season, is surely to bring
Good times are ahead with friends, that show that they care
For springtime makes us all happy, ready and willing to share
The joy and love of togetherness as solid as the circle of a ring
Caressed from the sweet sounds of nature and birds as they sing
So open your eyes and gaze at the new season of wonders, they
are not for just me
They have been given from nature, for you to enjoy and all
the world to see
