A
CUP OF SPRING
Oh, who will have a cup of
Spring --
that reviving time of year
when winter snow and frigid
climes
give way to warmth and cheer?
The cold dead earth
sprouts things anew --
those bursting buds upon the
tree
with leaves of greening hue!
Soft sunshine warms the rousing
days,
so gentle, yet alive,
and everything that was asleep
wakes up and starts to thrive.
The perfumed blossoms in the air
call noses to respond,
and in the early hours of morn
dew glistens on the frond.
The lilting songs of birds
entice
the heart to smile with glee.
With every note they seem to
waltz
from tree to verdant tree.
So come and drink a cup of
Spring;
awake to sheer delight!
The dismal, dreary winter days
are trumped by Spring's soft
light.
