Spring is to Me

I get the fever this time each year...
Coughing, sneezing, and sniffles I hold near...
My doc recommends me to stay inside...
I give it my best shot, Lord knows I try...

The birds are chirping love songs in the trees...
The azaleas in my yard are full of bumblebees...
The Easter lily blooms are soon to pop out...
It's so apparent what Mother earth is shouting about...

When the sun comes up, I spring from my bed...
I step out my back door to look overhead...
Nothing but blue skies is coming my way...
I breathe the regeneration of my new day...

There's good and bad in everything, I say...
And although my misery from pollens will not go away...
I plan to inhale the lovely scents of this season with zest...
Because NOW I relish and embrace this moment, it's the best...
