Sometimes It's Spring

Sometimes Spring comes so slow - you start to wonder
If you'll ever see the flowers, see the rain - even hear the thunder
That heralds the sounds of returning good ole Spring.
Everyday you watch the porch thermometer and see the birds on wing.

What a joy when we get to go outside to dig and plant.
All while we're mired in dirt and spades and at times we can't
Straighten up, we definitely understand about that couch potato syndrome
That invades the couches of the world in each and every home.

Sometimes we greet and welcome all the changing seasons,
But I do believe that Spring is welcomed loudest and for good reasons
Such a welcome relief from the cold and barren flower beds.
Now we can cooperate with nature to refurbish all those colorful tulip beds.
