It takes only a moment, to be kind

When human hearts, seek to find

The warmth of a smile, a cheerful face

Love and happiness, without a trace

Of hopelessness or mere despair

We, as one, must show we care

By lending hands to those who need

And stopping those who intercede

As brothers and sisters, together we stand

And Peace must reign o’er the lands

Awakened by light

Christened by the warmth of sun

Springtime has blossomed

The last of winter softly falls

Dressing berries in coats of white

The harbinger of spring awaits

To bid the frost its final bite

To chase it back from whence it came

And banish cold and bitter days

Let warmth replace the icy blasts

With sunlight’s glistening golden rays

She wakens

Arousing the skies and waters

She illuminates

With a growing light

She bathes

In the rippling of the seas

And her warmth graces the morn

With ageless beauty

Across the fading blades

And yellowing fields

Longing for the warmth

Of sunlight’s gaze

I dream

Only to be awakened

By autumn’s frosty breath

A kiss upon my cheek

A season of color reborn
