Spring is Marching on Again

Spring is Marching on Again

A Poem by Dennis Shanaberg
"

A Song About the Possibilites that the Arrival of Springtime Sings

"

The buds on the tree Fal--ling

Tells me that spring is marching on again.

The birds they might sing all through the night,

But as the sun rises-oh-their calls will increase.


And I know a better day is coming.

Another day is just around the bend--

Cuz there has to be one

Better than this.


The grass is shooting up from the snow--

With flowers and the green sprouts grow.

The people start smiling as they lose their coats;

Depression is simply an overburden of clothes.


And I know a better day is coming.

Another day is just around the bend--

Oh yes-a better day is coming

Another one’s right around the bend

Cuz there has to be one

Better than this.


The gulls on the beach Cal--ling

As the sand finds footprints on it again.

Campfires will turn the sand to glass;

When the flames die out, the embers will last.


And I know a better day is coming.

Another day is just around the bend--

Oh yes-a better day is coming

Another one’s right around the bend

Cuz there has to be one

Better than this.
