Let Spring Begin! Poem by Marilyn Lott

The winter was filled with snow
The ice storms hit us hard
Everything was covered up
With a glace of ice out in the yard

The poor little birds came in search
Of food they hoped to find somewhere
They couldn’t pull worms from the ground
So with crumbs and seeds we shared

But now the snow has begun to melt
The ice is all gone as well
We’re waiting for the signs
Of tiny buds just waiting to swell

Crocus in their lavender coats
Yellow heads of the Daffodil
Many sweet colors popping up
Of Primroses – oh, I want my fill!

Yes sir, I can smell all of them now
Delicious fragrances that they send
Oh please let the weather change
And let the spring begin!
