Birds chirping in Spring—
cheery sounds of hope and joy.
Life springs eternal.

Flowers are blooming.
A rush of colors and life.
Beauty all around.

Trees bloom in wonder,
buds appear as miracles.
Roots, trunks, and crowns—hope.

The Earth is alive.
The long Winter is over.
Welcome, Spring, welcome!
