ARRIVAL OF SPRING

ARRIVAL OF SPRING 

 

Like gentle waves that leave the shore

Exposing silvered virgin sand

the seasons change across the land

and spring at last arrives once more

 

On early morning springtime days

as light through stained church window glass

night leaves its dewy stamp on grass

which glints and glitters in the rays

 

Life reawakes with natures clock

from fields to woods, from heath to gorse

and fresh clear rivers run their course

and chatter with the stones and rock.
