Analysis of 1st Day of Spring
Melinda Behanna 1975 (SC)
In the stillness of the morning light; I awake to a
beautiful sight.
The sun stars to slowly rise, the birds
start to sing.
This is the 1st day of spring.
the leaves on the trees have started sprouting green.
Good Lord has once again.
Has blessed us all with another year.
coming to an end..
