a bell, in spring


there is a bell, in spring
a step, a song
a window open as warm rain drops
softly drift along

there is a kiss, in spring
lighter than a cloud
a sun danced wish of summer
spoken not to loud

there is touch, in spring
that brushes every heart
with love, a grace of spring's morning
as shoot and seed take start
 too
with bells, of spring
choir adds its refraining hymn
of plenty and of springtimes's promise as sleepy world
awakes again
