A Perfect Spring Day
Azaleas full bloom
Geraniums wind-dance
Bees soar and zoom
Small trees seem to prance
Spring winds so gusty
Send kites to flight
Squeaking gate, old, rusty
Bangs the fence in a fight
Sun warms my face
Waltzing pines put on a show
Two jays in a race
Cross sky-blue chasing a crow
Flowers everywhere
A colorful rainbow
Trees green beyond compare
I’m happy; heart aglow
Everything’s brand new
What looked dead, now alive
Butterfly visits on cue
A day to celebrate, not just survive
God loves us in every way
He gives us lovely gifts
Like a perfect Spring day
As our weary hearts He lifts
