Spring Has Sprung
Today is March 20th, and we officially greet our precious spring!
I do believe that springtime is more celebrated than any other thing.
First of all, to see life springing up in brilliance everywhere
Is reason to celebrate the color, the life and such beauty suddenly there.
We just accept all these miracles and rejoice from the depths of us,
And we go on and on making such a great speech and so much fuss.
Just happy, folks, just happy! Thank God for Spring!
It's suddenly a brand new world coming back to life. Our cheers do ring.
We revel in all that buried beauty that is springing to life.
We each celebrate in our heart and way, in our own life.
It is truly a symbol that beauty and life will rise again
To wipe away the bare, the cold and all of winter's pain.
