The smell in the air and the chirp of the birds--
The temp'rature climbing, I can't find the words
Describing the feeling of wonder and awe
As nature awakens--sans anger, sans flaw.

And what to this table set here for us now
Do I have to bring?  Some excitement?  But how?
My lethargy lingers--a cold I have found
I'm hacking and sneezing--no fun all around.

But wait shouts my psyche, the choice it is yours
Behave like an ogre--slam shut all the doors
OR revel in feelings of joy and rebirth
Enjoy the short time that you have on this earth

Two options appearing with resultant flair
Give in to the feeling that life isn't fair
Or celebrate living and go have a fling
I opt for the latter--Good God it IS Spring!
