• Here is the poem.  I love springtime.

  
  

  Springtime renewal

  
  

  Lovely are the budding trees

  
  

  When springtime touches their branches

  
  

  The flowers open to share with all

  
  

  And know they are taking their chances

  
  

  For any flower could open too soon

  
  

  And the beautiful blooms be lost

  
  

  Because the weather warms but then

  
  

  Reappears old jack frost

  
  

  Such are the matters of the heart, I feel

  
  

  For like springtime, love touches the soul

  
  

  And makes a heart open to share

  
  

  What has been its alone to have and hold

  
  

  The sweetness of the flower’s scent

  
  

  Could never truly compare

  
  

  To that of one heart touched By another

  
  

  so exposed & willing to share

  
  

  So as the blooms and the fragrances sweet

  
  

  Are appealing to everyone’s senses

  
  

  So is love in bloom when others look on

  
  

  It causes their own fond reminisces

  
  

  They remember the time they first fell in love

  
  

  And even if gone awry, they recall

  
  

  As another poet put it, ‘tis better to have loved and lost

  
  

  Than never to have loved at all

  
  

  Let spring be a time you choose to fall

  
  

  In deep love all over again

  
  

  With the one who brings out the best in your soul

  
  

  May they be your very best friend

  
  

  Renew the feelings and stir the emotions

  
  

  You once felt so often with your love

  
  

  For all these good things we know

  
  

  Are given from the One above

  
  

  Let springtime be in your hearts today and everyday… it brings renewal
