A Longing for spring

I am looking forward to spring: Partly because I am tired of the cold. Partly because I know this is a beautiful celebration put on by all of nature to salute the Son of God.


Poem Artwork

The flowers awaken and look to the sun.

The trees put on their garments…spring have begun.

 

I feel the soft April breeze caress my face as I dare go outside.

The beauty of spring is far to perfect to hide.

 

The winter has relinquished its hold on the land.

The flowers, trees, grass and birds now understand.

 

It is springtime and nature puts on her finest attire.

You see colors, of red, yellow and gold which you can’t help but admire.

 

Springtime is a rebirth.  It is a time of awakening and love.

It is a time of warm glow supplied by the sun above.

 

Springtime is more than a change in the weather.

It is a time of renewal and rebirth as nature celebrates together.

 

Springtime is the time to celebrate Easter and with good reason why.

It is a time of resurrection.  We praise our Lord on high.

 

Jesus hung on a cross and death could not hold him

Even when the Earth shook and the sun grew dim.

 

For three days later he rose from the dead

And ascended up high to the father instead.

 

So when the flowers bloom and the trees dawn their leaves

This is a wonderful celebration for one who believes.

Try living in Tornado Alley. Then you will have a different view on spring. I hate springtime in Texas; that is when we get our worst weather! GRR!

I love spring as well my friend, it is a time for planting and sewing, preparing for the rewards that one reaps when harvesting. It is a time when here on the farm new life begins, from kittens, chickens, to goats and horses. It is a time when the buds come forth and I begin my garden journal, when the pond comes alive with new life beneath the water...it is a time for revival! Wonderful write, I feel rejuvinated and revived just reading it and planning for spring! Enjoyed this much my friend!
Blessings,
