SPRING'S MELODY
Springtime is only a glimpse
of the glory of God
The sunshine silently shouts
"Awake"-- his rays applaud
The red bud trees blush
as painted leaves burst forth
The flaxen lilies proclaim
that life is now reborn
Children's joy is heard
as a choir from above
A mother's heart assured
like the nesting dove
A gentle rain drifts in
on clouds of somber hue
The sun whispers goodnight
as his day is through
The Oak stills himself
his new leaves breathe a sigh
The nightingale lulls me to sleep
with a baby's lullaby
