Lyrical poem accompanied by dreamy, sun-drenched illustrations in a children's picure book or handsome coffee table book. Poem is calming and comforting to young and old alike."The days are getting warmer, but there's still a faint chillRain has painted emerald every borough, tree and hill Petals waft like snowflakes onto arbors and frondsTadpoles wriggle mightily in shady, lazy ponds Daffodils poke their heads up, then gaze at their feetTulips stand in glory and won't admit defeat Ducks quack their welcome to their newly hatched chicksEgret, cormorant and swan add their chorus to the mix Fawns take their first steps under Doe's watchful eyeFledglings spread their wings and learn how to fly The sweet smell of hyacinth competes with fresh mown lawnToo soon, daylight hours will lengthen and Spring will have gone."
