Spring is here at last,
For the leaves have fallen from the sky.
Together we forget the past,
And let the morning birds fly.

Let the flowers bloom on their own,
And watch the red, blue, and yellow.
All the beautiful petals have shown,
For we must give the warm “hello”.

Watch the mosquitoes do their thing,
And look at the morning sun.
Listen to the bluejays sing,
And let us all have some fun.

While we are out enjoying the fun,
Why not call a couple of friends nearby.
Together we can all cook a bun,
And let the time go by.

Sniff a flower and you will see,
That all your troubles will tend to flee.
There will be the friendly bee,
To say hello to you and me.

Enjoy this nice and wonderful day,
For it will be your only spring.
It will not be able to stay,
To give you the nice and precious ring.

um....the cooking the buns mean that together we could all have a nice bbq or something cuz it is a nice day...the nice and precious ring means that it is a very nice day, you shouldn't miss out on the fun and if you just let this day go out of your hands then your missing a good moment or good time of the year, that's the ring....
sorry if you don't understand it...it's just that there is a deeper meaning that you have to think about in this poem....
thanks for your opinion though...hope to hear from you soon...
