The air is warm, the sky is blue,
But I can only think of you.
You would so love this wonder day;
April sliding into May.

You always loved the springtime best.
I know that, for you once confessed,
"Just let the winter have his fling,
For after winter comes the spring."

I wish God could have given you,
A little time, a month or two.
Cruel February took your breath.
I lost both spring and you to death.

This is the third spring since that date,
And winter I have ceased to hate.
In memory your words still ring,
"After long winter comes the spring."

Joyce: This touched my heart! I know each season is hard right now, but hope you can find some solace in spring.

Yes, very touching, Joyce. I can relate to this very well. This is the third spring for me too. You've expressed your feelings very well in this.
