I Smell The Good Times Ahead Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Winter is almost over
Trees are almost fully naked now
Ready to embrace the coming spring
Birds are preparing their voices
For the choir of the decade is about to begin
Bees are buzzing around the protruding buds
Unashamed by their own lack of manners
I smell the good times ahead

The snake is about to shed its skin
Distancing itself from those nasty scales of yesterday
Embracing the smell of a new skin
Its cold blood is about to get warm again
Caressed by the beautiful morning sunshine of spring
The seasons are changing
The times are changing
I smell the good times ahead

Winter is melting away
Giving way to a fresh morning cup of sunshine
Bursting with the sounds of the happy season
Revealing the new found love between flowers and bees
The happy trees revealing the newest fashion of leaves
Exposing their fruitful hearts to the birds of the air
The flowing nectar too good to miss
I smell the good times ahead

Life is about to lighten up
The black winter coats giving way to colorful dresses
Beautiful legs exposed by the cool breeze of spring
Mini skirts will be blooming soon
All shapes and style paraded
By the carelessly beautiful souls
Who roam the streets of my city
In their happy mode
I smell the good times ahead
