The tree blossom is starting to appear
the braver trees go first
Soon there will be an explosion
as pinks and white hues pop and burst 

Plus the bees are beginning to buzz 
which is exciting to see 
Today is the first day of spring 
which gifts these precious sights for free

This little delight is blooming 
bearing star shaped lilac flowers 
Aptly named Glory of the Snow
braving the harsh wintry showers 

A simple pleasure to treasure 
with the hidden message it brings 
A reminder that nature triumphs 
starting afresh each new spring

Lighter mornings are here 
todays is a brisk and beautiful one
Waking to frost and a dusting of snow
glistening in the sun 

Two swans reflected perfectly
in icy waters calm and still
A breathtaking and serene scene 
so captivating and tranquil

The sound of bleating lambs fills the air
and they are such a delight to see
After the last few snowy days
they welcome the grassy fields back with glee

The beginning of a brand new day
soft golden hues on the horizon 
When even the greyest of clouds
can’t hide the magic of the rising sun 

The beauty of this view is doubled
reflected in the water below
A mesmerising and calming scene 
Mother Nature’s finest sunrise show

Our snowdrops in all their glory
slender green stems with pure white bells 
Small and dainty but yet so strong 
shining through the chilly winter spells

A symbol of hope and rebirth
the perfect flower to start the year 
Always the most welcome of sights
to bring us all some much needed cheer

Clear brisk morning sets the scene
the rising sun takes centre stage in the sky
Soft hazy colours sent in all directions
a new day delights the eye

The first tree blossom opening up 
revealing delicate hints of pink and white
The weather has yet to get the memo
but signs heralding spring are in sight 

Right now it couldn’t be more welcome
so get out and enjoy the cheery display 
The wonderful sights and sounds of springtime  
is guaranteed to brighten up your day

Ponds are filled with a witch’s potion 
at this most spellbinding time of year 
This joyful gloop will bubble and grow 
until wriggling tadpoles appear
