Welcome to the Springtime

by Matt Forget

As the ocean waters wrinkle

You sit before me

Glistening eyes appear

Shining brighter than the sea

 

Open up your door for me

And let the sea air in

Oh tis the season of the land we live

And this is where we begin

 

“Welcome to the Springtime”

The early bird did sing

Your adventure is about to start

Guided by his feathered wing

Show us all the early headlines

Of each forgotten day

As we celebrate the morning of

This lovely seasoned day

 

Tell us a story of our only child

Growing up in World Ward III

I only see that guided light

Bringing nothing but our peace

 

Keep us from the violence

Bring us harmony our way

Saying “Joy to our world, our Lord

Save us from today.”

Author's Note: A little song I wrote to welcome Spring. It's a strang little piece but I feel has strong words on our society and our world today.
