Hurry tree, hurry

The snow has finally melted,
the grass is starting to green,
Robins are hopping and mourning doves coo
I hear the laughter of children outside again
and the honks of geese are fading
I stop and notice that the trees are budding,
hurry tree, hurry
bring your blooms for Spring
and your leaves
for Summer
I notice a neighbor's daffodils
waking from their winter slumber
and look forward to the tulips
hurry Earth, hurry
bring your blooms for Spring
and your leaves
for Summer
