Kyrielle Sonnet: From Winter To Spring Poem by Dr John Celes

Alas! When winter left the world so bare,
with trees and plants denied of their welfare,
the birds begged God to change the sordid scene:
Spring sprung a surprise making landscape green!

God heard the prayers of all earthlings fast;
His heart with pity for them was soon cast;
The Maker could no longer stay so mean:
Spring sprung a surprise making landscape green!

God’s word returned the warmth and leaves in days,
with flowers, fruits birds, insects joining the race;
The earth got hope in form of verdure sheen;
Spring sprung a surprise making landscape green!

Alas! When winter left the world so bare,
Spring sprung a surprise making landscape green.
