Springtime

Wednesday 21 March 2018


The winter time is almost over thank goodness
This year it has gone on so much it feels never endless
With the snow hitting us hard twice in a row
Is this the last of it I wonder, I guess we won’t yet know
You will soon see farmers putting their hands to the plough
For it is that time of year when they will just sough

Lambing season is right around the corner
Now is almost the time whereby my puppy will become an explorer
For the springtime is almost here upon us
The leaves on the trees will come through without any fuss
The tiny buds on the trees will grow bigger as time goes on
Lilies will spring up all over on so many ponds

Spring spells new life for many animals and birds
Including the cows that are all over and amalgamate in herds
Lambs are already being born this is plain to see
Sometimes their mothers ignore them, so they are harder to feed
So, for the farmers around this season spells a lot of hard work
This job is not for the faint hearted but there are those who will shirk

For woodland everywhere there appears to be masses of blue bells
So lovely to walk among them and they even have a faint smell
Daffodils and tulips, you can find wherever you go
Also sold in shops far and wide you can see them all in pretty rows
This wonderful time of year where flowers are plentiful
Their new lease of life is just simply incredible

People feel so much brighter when the sun shines on them
For those that are single soon pair up and become an item
This is the time of year where proposals are high
So many couples celebrating everywhere especially at night
Wedding plans are often in full swing all around
For the next chapter in their lives to begin they are homeward bound

This time of year, is also important for Christian believers
Who observe Passover and more often than not Easter
Chocolate eggs are everywhere, wherever you may go
And if you don’t get one soon, the stores, they will become low
For those of us around who do more than just observe
The sacrifice given from Jesus have you not heard?

For he died on the cross due to being sacrificed and beaten
He could have denied who he was, but he simply didn’t weaken
In the bible this story was foretold of his death
But after three days his life God did resurrect
If you wonder why, Jesus went through all that he did
It was to take our sins for which on the cross he just got rid

So, this season is really for me the best time of year
for many reasons to some of which are not very clear
the warmth of the sunshine and lease of new life
can quite often get rid of your troubles and strife
Therefore, if you feel like heading out and about
Then for me to go with you I will go without a shadow of doubt
