poem she wiote before she was

“Preview To Spring”
Wasn’t it beautiful out today’
It made me feel so carefree, so
--*>■ ~s
gay.
I rose before the sun had yet
climbed the hill
And the whole world seemed
peaceful and still.
I sat by the window and watched
the sun rise
And it was really a feast to my
eyes
Just then a robin appeared on
* *
the lawn,
Picking up crumbs I had
$
scattered at dawn.
I watched for awhile, then a
worm showed his head
But it wasn’t long until he was
dead
The day looked so inviting I
donned sweatei and cap,
I was finally awaking from a
long, wmteis nap
Oh, winter has its beauty and is
all right, I suppose,
If you’re willing to sacrifice
your nose and your toes
What’s that’ It seems I’m
partial you say!
But I was simply captured by
this wonderful day.
