Dear Spring,

Oh, how I’ve missed you. You’ve been away so long!

I cannot wait to see you and have you back where you belong.

 

The primroses in the prairie, they gossip, and they natter,

I heard a warm whisper on the breeze, amongst all their idle chatter.

 

Someone said you’re on your way, please tell me is it true?

We’re planning to have a welcome party, and there’s so much left to do!

 

Everyone’s excited, from the blossoms to the blooms.

The rabbits have started gathering decorations, the birds are practicing their tunes.

 

Blossom by blossom, the buds have been dancing, ditsy with delight.

A sweet symphony of colour, causing quite a sight.

 

We’re counting down the days now. Not long until you’re here!

I’ve really missed your playful ways, your laughter and your cheer.

 

Funny, I fancied that I just saw you, outside where the sun is shining bright.

I thought I glimpsed your floral cloak, or perhaps it was a trick of the light?

 

I really must go now; you’re causing quite a furore.

I wonder, who could that be, knocking at my door?
