Description:
Spring is a magical time.
Spring
Snow abates, the frost retreating Winter time now seems so fleeting Birds return, with young lambs bleating Now Spring is on its way The sun, it climbs to heights of old Days get longer, nights less cold Evening shadows laced with gold Now Spring is on its way Sap is rising, trees awake Fish are spawning in the lake Salmon, herring cod and hake Now Spring is on its way Bluebells, crocus, daises growing Farmers ploughing, busy sowing The Western wind is set for blowing Now Spring is on its way Stars appear and twinkle bright Oceans glisten in the night Ebb and flow with all their might Now spring is on its way Romance blooms and grows on high Couples kiss and touch the sky Praying love won’t pass them by Now Spring is on its way |

| I agree with everone here.......this poem really is a great one............. Well thought out and written with excellent meter .....there sure was a 'spring' in each step of the poem. The poem flows very beautifully and you have penned down so many of the blessings that nature bestows on us.......during the advent of spring ( in this poem ). I liked these verses : "Stars appear and twinkle bright Oceans glisten in the night Ebb and flow with all their might Now spring is on its way" ; "Romance blooms and grows on high Couples kiss and touch the sky Praying love won’t pass them by Now Spring is on its way" But to come to think of it, I nearly change my mind when I read the other verses once more..............each one is great. Good job. | Posted on 2008-03-18 00:00:00 | by mdsouza | [ Reply to This ] | Great poem, simple and beautiful like its subject matter. | | Posted on 2008-03-04 00:00:00 | by Paddy21 | [ Reply to This ] | This poem is wonderful praise of Spring, and all it's hopeful promises of new life. | Another wonderful work, Frank!

Your poem is a delight to read and the repeated line worked very well as an emphasis. This one goes to my favorites! :-) Sharon | | Posted on 2008-02-25 00:00:00 | by Peggy Paris | [ Reply to This ] | I love it, as usual, Frank. :) | Nothing bad to say. Keep up the good work, as you always do! | Posted on 2008-02-23 00:00:00 | by Yclipse | [ Reply to This ] | This poem has the mood of the almost breathless anticipation of Spring after enduring the agony of a long, cold, and grey winter! It literally "sings" with the joy of anticipation, and the mood of Spring! | I love this: "Romance blooms and grows on high Couples kiss and touch the sky Praying love won’t pass them by Now Spring is on its way" I can remember some blushing farm girls whose kisses took me right through the clouds and beyond! *sigh* You have a genius for writing, and for telling a rhyming story! I enjoyed this very much! | Posted on 2008-02-23 00:00:00 | by Ron Cole | [ Reply to This ] | |
