Of all the seasons in the year
Spring’s the one that gives me cheer
For longer days and a brighter sun
That melts the snow when winter’s done
A good riddance to winter strife
A pleasant welcome for new life
For maple syrup on my plate
Croaking frogs court a mate
Wild flowers erupt in bloom
Sweeping the garage with a broom
For the birds’ safe return
Cleaning the boat stem to stern
Firing up the barbecue grill
As Mother Earth sprouts daffodils
For the child with bat and ball
Who runs the bases and does not fall
All teams begin in first place
With visions of a pennant race
For the bunnies who hop along
Beneath the robins who sing their song
High atop a cherry tree
Where blossoms burst in majesty
Of all the seasons in the year
Spring’s the one that gives me cheer
