Signs of Spring

The rain was falling yesterday
But birds were singing anyway
They sang and sang the whole day through
Songs of spring rang out: it's true

Though bitter cold controlled the day
The creatures romped and chose to play
They played and played and jumped around
Despite the pitter pattering sound.

As I reflect and start this day
I hear the star of morning say:
"Come bask inside these warming rays:
The rain is gone..it never stays"

So to the morning I quickly respond...
With awe and wonder and muffled yawn
I'm ready.. willing.. and here, to  see..
Come teach; instruct; and be with me
