Dreaming of Spring!

by

As the snow gets smaller and smaller.

 

We dream of Spring.
Insects will start to appear.
We turn the pages.
The dribbling of drops begins.

 

We dream of Spring.
Plan our gardens
With a magazine.
Some green starts to appear.

 

We dream of Spring.
Town meetings start.
Voices are heard.
Hoping for no flooding. 
We dream of Spring.
What do you dream of in Spring?
Ginni Nichols, Young Adult Librarian

The calendar SAYS Spring

by

“The spring came suddenly,
bursting upon the world as a child bursts into a room,
with a laugh and a shout and hands full of flowers.”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
“It’s spring fever. That is what the name
of it is. And when you’ve got it,
you want – oh, you don’t quite know
what it is you do want, but it
just fairly makes your heart ache,
you want it so!”
Mark Twain (1835-1910)
