Winter's End Poem by Nancy Chambers

On this winter day
All the colors are drab and gray
The Earth’s in a lull
The sun shines dull.
The flowers are gone
Brown is the lawn
The ground is hard and cold
What happened to Autumn’s gold?
Nothing good on the news
Just housing and stock market blues.
The trees are bare
The Earth feels like Despair.
Wait! Is that a crocus popping it’s head?
The trees are dormant, not dead.
There’s a robin, worm seeking
Flowering buds are peeking.
Daffodils are beginning to raise
Now there are longer days
Winter days there still will be some
But the Time of the Singing of the Birds has come!
