Delightful display
Snowdrops bow their pure white heads
To the sun's glory.

Indicating spring will soon
Energize us all.

Frisky with the joys of life
Bleating happily.

Beneath trees so sparsely dressed
Fresh green leaves unfold.

Echoes heard amid dense trees
Cuckoo has arrived.

With sounds and vibrant colours
Perfect harmony.

Of families having fun
In sand and big waves.

Burning sun in azure skies

On telephone wires ready
To migrate down south.

Crunchy as cornflakes beneath
Feet on a crisp morn.

Frosty webs sparkle
In the early morning sun
Brightly bejeweled.

Dust gardens like icing on
A chocolate cake.
