As I Wait For Spring

All that I can hope for
is one more Spring
In anticipation I wait
For the wonders it will bring

To wander through my garden
where the white buds will bloom
A banquet for the senses
to take away the gloom

To fill my heart with joy once more
though I know it wont endure

For the beauty that surrounds me
I must treasure while I may
Until the Winter of my ending
will take these gifts away...
