Hello, my Friend!  Hello today!

I hope you are in a good way!

No matter rain, sleet, snow, or shine,

I always hope your day is fine!

Just looks and feels like changin’ days…

Seems like some days have Spring-like ways.

The Forest trees have kept me warm…

Safe from danger…many a storm.

 

I see a bird high in a tree,

Who’s sayin’ tweet, tweet, tweet to me!

 

I hear the sounds of other birds…

“twit-cha”and “phwee” instead of words….

“Chirp-chirp” and “peep-peep”, I hear, too,

Birds’ sounds…different…from me and you!

   

   

I hear the crow call with his caw,

         

And in the field, green-lings, I saw!

Those little green shoots, sure but small,

Are startin’ to “hear” Springtime’s call!

So, from the Forest, I will come,

And, in the field, I will play…some.

I’ll run and feel the cool spring air.

I’ll jump and play just everywhere!

I also like the water’s melt…

My hands, the ice melt’s cold, have felt!

Flowers will come…it won’t be long…

Breezes will carry each bird’s song.

The pines won’t be the only green,

As trees’ blooms fill out Forest’s scene.

The eagles’ nest is quiet still.

Hopefully, won’t be long until

   

Little eaglets rest in the nest,

With parents givin’ what is best

To help their little eaglets grow,

So grand and strong…the world to show

      

That they can fly so very high…

So way, way up high, in the sky!

And robins very soon will be

Hoppin’ around so busily…

   

Gatherin’ little twigs and leaves

And grasses that will make the weaves

Of their nests’ walls, sturdy and strong,

To keep their chicks safe for as long

As needed for them till they fly…

Fly up, away, into the sky.

 

The browns are letting greens peek out…

That makes me want to jump and shout!

   

Hooray, hooray! Spring’s comin’ now!

It won’t be long till we see how

The Earth that’s warmed will let things grow…

Burst forth with plants that soon will show

Those many colors we so love…

Our Rainbows’ gift from God above!

        

   

When coldness had chased warmth away,

And Fall eased in with lots to say,

The leaves did wither from the cold,

Without some warmth they were not bold,

   

   

To face the air with strength and grace,

So all the world could “see” their “face!”

The greens had mostly turned to brown,

And fine tall plants had fallen down.

      

The frost had coated everything,

   

And birds, each day, they did not sing.

Winter then came, north winds did blow,

And, sometimes, we even had snow!

Not too much snow, amount was small,

And Christmas made time good for all!

   

Some ice had crusted here and there,

       

And finally melted… leaves are bare.

      

But now spring rains will gently clean

And water well a new, green scene!

Once more we’ll see puffs blowin’ ‘round,

Lookin’ for a place on the ground…

Fine seeds will fly, hopin’ to grow,

   

And flowers will try hard to show.

   

The fruit trees’ blooms…they will, us, make,

Yearn for harvest and apple bake!

   

   

What’s happenin’ now is such great fun,

‘Cause soon we’ll enjoy the warm sun!

 

We’ll laugh and dance and jump and run,

On grand green grass till day is done!

With Angel Friends and breezes soft…

While sky shows birds that are aloft…

We’ll be so thankful Spring has come,

And Winter’s cold, we’ve freedom from!

           I am so glad we talked today!

God bless you is what I do say!
