The words of spring silent now
lie fallow in the ground
faithful and content
and certain of intent.

Arise again they will
their song remembered still
and duets with the setting sun
will harmonize as one.

In spring the vow of nature
like from the past the future
returns to claim supremacy
in heart’s eternal energy.

Risen then the season spring
foretells of happy things
and flutters in the breeze
the hopes of many dreams.

Free to be, enjoy, partake,
but stable at love’s stake
spring begins again to dance
and not fear Winter’s advance.

And then again to fallow lie
embraced within a life
the birth of spring will ever show
the beauty of a timeless soul.

Silent now the words of spring
beneath the din of life’s full swing
and who can listen, feel, believe,
it never grows to up and leave?

For some spring does come go again
but in truth still sings now here today!

Thanks iliana. Just into autumn here so we have a long wait for spring.
