No matter how cold the winter gets
No matter how dark and glum
I know the time will come again
When spring brings back the sun
The wheel will turn, the seasons pass
And all that’s dead and drear
Is only sleeping for a while
Until the thaw is near
At last the ground is soft and bare
Each day is longer now
Fertile Nature bursting forth
Swelling buds on every bough
The days are growing longer yet
Sprouting seeds, and shoots of green
It lifts my heart to hear the birds
When they so sweetly sing
I saw a golden daffodil
Its trumpet lifted high
And violets winking in the lawn
Wild eyes turned toward the sky
The sun above, the earth below
And all that lives between
Reminds me that we’re all reborn
When winter turns to spring
