Bring To Me Springtime

 I Wake to each morning
My eye's smile bright

to the beautiful Sun
Dew that glistens in light

with fresh early breaths
of sweet smelling air

My heart jumps in murmurs
bursting warm as it flares

to excitements of beauty
brought to my sight

just the smallest things
like a Robins first flight

A lover of springtime
it brings out in all

these passionate feeling
we've sheltered from fall

a start of new cycles
from plant life to Bees

these blossoms of color
burst from winters lost freeze

building are rivers
with the melting of snow

hearts fill with pleasure
in each face there's a glow  

So bring to me spring time
in the start of each day

let these eyes capture beauty
started early in may

for  life is held closely
and beauty holds me

in this grasp of attention
with each new sight I see

Very nicely done. It has

Very nicely done. It has been a long cold winter. Spring is one of my favorites seasons as well, and you described it beautifully. I noticed as I came in from work a short time ago that I have a patch of crocus that have just opened. The rest will soon follow. Thanks for sharing. Sue
