The Arrival of the Spring Makes Me Smile

Today, the 1st of March, marks the beginning of the spring in my country, and even if it's dark and rainy outside, I can't stop smiling and feeling a surge of optimism taking over my soul.

There's a big smile on my face, just as in the picture above showing a happy face on a bench in the park of my hometown, at the thought that the dreaded winter is slowly giving way to the lovely spring, and within a few weeks everything will be green once again, the sun will shine and the combination of views, sounds and smells associated with the spring will make me feel again more alive than in the past few gruelling months of winter.

Every year the arrival of the spring symbolises the rebirth of nature and a restart, a new vave of hope and lust for life that makes me feel great again. May this spring be a wonderful season for everyone!

Winter's End

        Winter full of darkness

        Time to end your role

        Take away the sadness

         Get out of my soul.

         Spring of pure delight

         Come back to my street

         Stay within my sight

         Make again life sweet!

 

        

Spring Reverie

              

            

      I'm sitting lonely on a bench

      My thirst for beauty I must quench

      While feeling the wind's gentle breeze

      Under the shade of willow trees.

      There's so much silence in the park

      That I would stay here till it's dark

      Letting the sun into my mind

      And leaving the dark days behind.

      It's time for me to rise and shine

      Cause once again the stars align

      To bring the spring back in my soul

      And make me love life as  whole!

     A new bright age will soon arrive

     Flowers will bloom, critters will thrive

     And as the green will rule the Earth

     We'll celebrate nature's rebirth!
