The beginning of spring

I once walked into the woods alone
in winter while there was a snowy storm
and deep in the forest I came about
a green field of snowdrops just starting to sprout.

The moment I saw them, the storm did abate
and slowly but surely did nature awake
The trees were in buds and they started to green
and no fairer moment has ever been seen.

The bees were all bumbling, the air tasted fresh
and all kinds of wild game were brazen and brash
As peewits and finches all started to sing
I suddenly felt the beginning of spring.
