Springtime arrives in Idaho again

So beautiful and yet so unpredictable

It was a long and dreary winter

So glad it is finally over and done

We survived it again all in one piece

Despite the challenges it always brings.

Springtime in Idaho warmly welcomed

Even though it isn’t so warm today

Yesterday it actually snowed again

And the wind howled and whipped

Today it was chilly with only a little sun

Tomorrow it could be in the sixties.

Springtime in Idaho you never know

Anything is possible rain, snow or sun

I look forward to the bright sunny days

And spending an hour or so outside

Enjoying the fresh air and bird songs

Watching as the season comes to life.
