But a fortnight away Crocuses and Daphodils Will soon push Through the snow A certain sign Spring's on the way. The Vee formations Now in reverse Fly North to Tundra breeding grounds And Arctic Fox and Hare Will change from white to brown. In the Boles the sap Will stir, slowly rising Bringing life On each branch Buds appear the Leaf within seeking light. From brown to green The grass will turn The Lake its' angry hue Will shed, the skies Of sullen grey will flee Replaced by warming blue Rain will fall To cleanse the Earth And feed the life within. Bird song herald The new rebirth and The Land will bloom again.
