I
saw the first robin
Of Spring today.
Made
me feel
So
good.
I’ve
made it through
Another winter.
Suddenly,
it all seems –
Better than it should.
Soon
the rose
bush,
Back behind the house,
Will
be totally clad
In its yellow bloom.
It’s
a sure sign that the cold
Is finally winding down.
New beginnings
Will soon be in the womb.
The
daffodils, hyacinths and irises
Aren’t too far off now.
I
wouldn’t change this season –
Even if I could.
Yes,
I saw a robin today.
Looking
for the early worm.
Sure
sign that Spring is here.
Made me feel so good.
