I
The snow is melting
The new grass reveals itself
My spirit awakes
II
The sun has come out
The air is finally warm
Put the coats away
III
Open the windows!
Let the fresh breezes blow through!
Refresh my stale soul!
IV
Digging in the dirt
I plant the new year’s seedlings
The earth smells alive
V
On the garage shelf
I see my old baseball glove
“Wanna have a catch?”
VI
I hear the thunder
The lightning flashes above
The spring rain falling
VII
It’s snowing in March
But it doesn’t make me sad
I know it won’t last
VIII
Rivers are flooding
The people are in danger
Homes are washed away
IX
Clouds begin to spin!
A twister is touching down!
Flee to the basement!
X
Suddenly I hear
The birds are singing again!
Music to my soul
