That First Sign.

There it was,

There it was showing its head

As it popped up through the earth.

New life was coming to my world,

These dark, dank, dark days were changing.

The buds of Spring were there

Showing me that the brightness

Was coming back to this world.

There was only one bud

But I knew the others would follow,

And before long the beauty of Spring

Would be with us as they flowered,

Shining the yellow flowers all around,

All around my garden

As the daffodils bloomed,

Bloomed once more

As they did every year,

Forever bring more brightness

Into my life,

Into my wonderful life.
