Every year, back comes Spring, with nasty little birds yapping their fool heads off and the ground all mucked up with plants.

With looks my care beguiling;
The country round appeareth straight

The spring's already at the gate
With looks my care beguiling;
The country round appeareth straight
A flower-garden smiling.

Starred forget-me-nots smile sweetly,
Ring, bluebells, ring!
Winning eye and heart completely,
Sing, robin, read more

Starred forget-me-nots smile sweetly,
Ring, bluebells, ring!
Winning eye and heart completely,
Sing, robin, sing!
All among the reeds and rushes,
Where the brook its music hushes,
Bright the caloposon blushes,__
Laugh, O murmuring Spring!

If there comes a little thaw,
Still the air is chill and raw,
Here and there a patch of snow,
Dirtier than the ground below,
Dribbles down a marshy flood;
Ankle-deep you stick in mud

"This is Spring."

The sun was warm but the wind was chill.
You know how it is with an April day
When the sun is out and the wind is still,

But if you so much as dare to speak,
A cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
A wind comes off a frozen peak,
And you're two months back in the middle of March.
