Spring Rain

Soft over woodland
the evening rain falls
birds all seek shelter
soft now their calls.
See the fresh dawning
dust washed away
all the birds singing
to welcome the day.
Bright are the blossoms
bright as each bird
as feeding on nectar
their sweet calls are heard.
Spring rains are soaking
the winter-hard ground
new life emerges
to woodland's own sound;
the music of nature
composed by the earth,
to celebrate springtime,
renewal, rebirth!
