Hymn To Spring Poem by Pete Crowther

Hymn To Spring

Rating: 5.0


Wild roses bloom in May
When trees are freshly green
And everything is bright and clean
In a new-made world’s first day.

Cold winter now is far away,
It seems a distant dream
That somehow was not meant to stay
And faded from the scene.

Cast off your cares, come let us play
Discarding dull routine,
We’ll dance a jig upon the green —
Sweet spring has come today,
And I’m the king of the Milky Way
And you shall be my queen.

I know just how you feel. I loved the poem, especially the last stanza. I feel like dancing a jig right now, for I've just defended me graduation paper. Another 2 weeks and I'll get my Master of Arts! Dancing Julia :)
