First signs of Spring:

The bulbs are in bloom, the fields are green,

 the first blooms are on the trees

and the pea pods in the garden are accessorized 

with delicate purple blossoms...Spring is near!

first blossoms on the farm!

Pea Pod blossoms

Daffodil Time

It is daffodil time, so the robins all cry,

For the sun's a big daffodil up in the sky.

And when down the midnight owl call "to-who"!

Why, then the round moon is a daffodil too;

Now sheer to the bough-tops the sap starts to climb,

So, merry my masters, it's daffodil time.
