The Approach of Spring

Snowstorm and blizzard howl
Winter's veil has covered the hills
Under its icy bark it hides
The calm water creeks
Everything freezes as the wind rages
The sky is covered with a grey haze
But the clouds shall leave and sun will shine
Melting the last frost from the trees
The blizzards have become weaker
The cold is no longer fierce
A subtle dripping is heard
The vivid messenger of thunderstorms of May
The forests will breathe again after the winter's sleep
The sun's rays shall fall unto the earth
And a careless rain shall pour
Giving birth to the young streams in the woods
Everything passes in the circle of life
The winter's cold is replaced by spring
The chirping of birds shall drive away the frigid howl of the snowstorm
And bring the warmth to the world
