Hope Springs Eternal

"Hello there!" I say, though you're overdue again
you're still the favorite of the four.
Only the fresh breeze whispers your promise
for yet another wondrous encore.

For now all the living abide and wait for you
to emerge from that wintry shadow.
Life so eager, so ardent, so patient to convene so
I demand you, "Get on with the show!"

Your power so craftily wielded and practiced for
countless millennial gone by and by
Creatures of all sorts sing praise as you fill the
world with colors you timelessly apply

You've come and gone leaving nothing behind
but life where there was none before
Nothing asked in return for the greatest gifts our
world has ever known, "Oh, how we adore!"

The glory of God is nowhere more evident than your
works and lifeblood you provide
Scientists, teachers and philosophers alike stand
in awe as your magic is annually applied

So hurry Oh Spring, for your subjects await..
For nothing on Earth is so grand as the love
and life you create..
