Gentle tulips,
Sing your lullaby to
The fading shadows
Of cold evenings –
Let the frost go

May the warm
Sunshine wrap a
Promise around
Tired shoulders,
Lifting winter’s weight

Golden daffodils,
Tickle us with a sweet
First kiss on the wings of
Blossoming hopes and
Chances reborn

April breeze,
Let your whisper
Sprinkle the seed of joy
Onto the rich soil of
Fields and gardens
Where dreams are sown

Buzzing bees,
Bring us the velvet touch
Of peace, a life-giving nectar
To stir the withered world
Back into its dance

Let spring – the year’s bright dawn –
Unfold its green glory
Let hope smile
Let nature sing
