Spring Is Here

Just my little poem about spring...

 

Spring Is Here

 

Spring is here and winter’s nigh,

The cold has gone, the warmth is high,

The birds all sing amongst the trees,

Children play as they so do please

 

The lambs are birthed, one by one,

For it’s the season when they come,

Love is ripe within the air,

The kind of buzz that’s always there,

 

The flowers bloom o'er vale and hill,

The bluebell and the Daffodil,

Their scent is rich upon the breeze,

They claim the humble bumble bees.

 

The nights grow light, it’s hard to sleep,

No more darkness looming deep,

The heavens shine, the stars are bright,

Moths fly and flutter amongst the light

 

Pain has gone and life is pleasant,

Joy has risen, love is present,

Spring is here and winter’s nigh,

The cold has gone, the warmth is high

Wow this is how I am feeling right now! It is really great that you are able to use rhyme without it feeling like a second grade poem. I really like the lines, Pain has gone and life is pleasant,
Joy has risen, love is present, that is so deep so much deeper than what I can do. I love the metaphor of spring being happiness and winter being sorrow. I really hope to see more! Let me know when you do!

It seems like a fanasty or a dream, that you really don't want to wake up from.
I like it a lot.

A real feel good poem that just made me smile and expressed beautifully exactly how I feel when spring finally rises from the depths of winter.

This was amazing. This is definitely one of the best peaces I've ever read. Probably because spring is my favorite season and it just warms my heart to read a piece about it. The metaphors you put into this piece were very creative and original.

My favorite part of this piece was definitely the ending where you said :

Pain has gone and life is pleasant,
Joy has risen, love is present,
Spring is here and winter's nigh,
The cold has gone, the warmth is high

It just warms me and shoots tingles through my body. Great write. Keep on going for it! You'll go far with this piece for sure!

Very cute poem. :) Nice use of rhyme, it flowed very well~ The last two stanzas were my favorite, great use of language and repetition. And hurray for spring! No one was more happy for the end of winter, believe me, LOL. Great poem! =)

I like this :D. It's so bubbly and happy and whenever spring arrives I get in the best mood ever because of winter's depressing darkness all the time ahha. This made me EVEN happier :D Thanks for this.

Beautifully expressed! There's a love for spring here wrapped in finely expressed phrases; plus, the poem is gentle, calm and thoughtful. It's a post to return to.

I find this verse very sweet and the word-play with 'buzz' made me smile: 'The lambs are birthed, one by one ~ For it's the season when they come, ~ Love is ripe within the air, ~ The kind of buzz that's always there,'

Thank you so much for sharing.

Nice light poem, kind of makes one feel nostoligic as summer is about to make it's exit into fall.

Thanks for entering my contest and the best of luck to you.
