Colours of Spring

Upon its arrival winter ends

Light shines through once more

It warms the soul

And melts the frosty white canvas of winter

Spring’s light brings colour to the world

Brings all we need for life to flourish

Awaken from sleep

Chilling winds return to just a breeze

Only enough to stroke the flowers

As they too have just woken up

Just in time for honey bee

As they wake from the smell of sweet nectar

Oh how spring brings back life

To the trees that were bare in winter

It brings colour, warmth and lightens one’s spirit

With thoughts of breathing easier

Enjoying simple walks

Picnics by the lake

Listening to the world coming to life

As all awaken from deep slumber
