The Magic Season
 
 
A single bird arrives to call
Announcing first to all who hear
As snow will melt and wash the fields
To show that truly Spring is near
 
The days once chilly, short and dark
Get longer and more cheery still
The warmth from sunlight's loving glow
Extends across each field and hill
 
A single blade, then two, then more
The grass will soon replace the snow
The tiny buds on trees and plants
Discover that it's time to grow
 
The animals both great and small
Awaken from their winter sleep
As Mother Nature sends the call
Thru fields wide and forests deep
 
A single bird arrives to call
And others join from far and near
There's magic in this wondrous time
The miracle of Spring is here
