Spring

By Mrs. M. C. Sellers

By Mrs. M. C. Sellers
Spring is here again, sweet springtime, Gladdest season of the year; In my heart there is a rapture Never felt till she is near.
Bursting bud and peeping blossom,— How my heart with rapture thrills, As I pause to give you welcome, For the joy your sweetness fills.
Pretty wanderers from Eden, Once your fair and happy home, Do you share the fate of mortals Over earthland doomed to roam?
Springtime bird, I hear your greeting, And return your gay salute. Just as glad as in the old time Sounds your merry, sweet-toned flute.
Spring, sweet springtime, much I love you, For you always speak to me Of that day, so fast approaching, When our loved ones we shall see.
