Into Spring! - Jenny Hamon

Oh how I’ve yearned
This winter long
To hear the birds
And feel the sun
But winter seems
Endless this year
We need some warmth
To bring us cheer

I felt the sun
Upon my skin
Today, it must be
A sign of spring
But don’t speak too soon
‘Cos as darkness comes
The temperature
Again will plunge

Be patient for a while
They say
Another month
And it is May
When we can say
At last it’s here
Cast off our coats
And raise a cheer.....hopefully!
