Ivy Schex - The Coming Spring

And in the dreariness
Just before spring
There comes a tiding
That heaven brings
A scent of fresh green
Mingled with a warm wind
A hint of flowers unseen
Beneath the warming earth
And as winter clutches
And grasps its last
Spring enters from the south
And stands steadfast

Ivy Schex
