SPRING IS NEAR

SPRING IS NEAR


Spring is near, the white ice melts,
There is a greenish spread.
Life shines, weathers’ new cycle
Is waiting straight ahead.

Spring is near, the air is filled
Already with fragrance.
Shining leaves and singing birds
All dance in a cadence.

With new zeal let’s inside feel
Fresh warmth and tenderness.
Ideas are what make a man
Let’s wildest dreams harness!
