The long winter had taken its toll
All of life seem so sad with no soul.
The pastures were dead, no grass to see.
Not even a leaf on one single tree.
If only time would bring back Spring.

Time never stands still
It moves with free will
As we awake one morning,to hear
Far away sounds of a church bell ring
Then we hear a robin Sing
Could this mean that spring is near!

The dogwoods are blooming oh so bold.
The redbuds are budding, ever so bright!
Even the sound of the songbirds in flight,
Remind us to remember time is never on hold,
With patience we'll see a beauty unfold!
