Finally Spring!

After a long cold winter

Fluffy clouds attempt to hide the sun,
Ivory blooms open, one by one,
Nightingales nest in a neighbor’s oak tree,
All of my sweaters are stored in mothballs
Longer days give me more time to play,
Less time to sleep my life away:
Yahoo! Finally Spring!

Sweet warm breezes whisper through pine trees,
Pink and red roses release their perfume,
Robins are sitting on egg-filled nests,
In the backyard, weeds are starting to grow,
Newly installed screens keep out the flies:
Give thanks to the Lord, it’s Finally Spring!
