Snowdrops


Spring is on our doorstep! Today I saw snowdrops for the first time this year. They are so delicate and give such promise of Spring soon to follow.

Snowdrops

Oh Snowdrops, I think that
You came in the night,
In only your nighties
And that's why you're white.

The world was all sleeping
With never a sound,
You wanted to see it
So came through the ground.

I think that you're smiling
But still feel to shy,
To lift your sweet faces
To smile at the sky.
