Poor, dear, silly Spring, preparing her annual surprise! -Wallace Stevens
The naked earth is warm with spring,
And with green grass and bursting trees
Leans to the sun's kiss glorying,
And quivers in the sunny breeze.
~Julian Grenfell

Leans to the sun's kiss glorying,
And quivers in the sunny breeze.

Awake, thou wintry earth -
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
-Thomas Blackburn
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
-Thomas Blackburn
Five busy bees on a lovely spring day.
The first one said, "Let's fly away."
The second one said, "We'll drink some nectar sweet."
The third one said, "Let's get pollen on our feet."
The fourth one said, "And then we'll make some honey."
The fifth one said, "Good thing it's warm and sunny!"
So the five busy bees went flying along,
Singing a happy honeybee song.
Bzzzzzzzzzz!
