The first line is the inspiration for this song. I was driving to work and saw the geese for the first time this season and the melody began that moment. This is the "working recording" not a final version.

Springtime Coming copyright joice marie 2006
Today I saw a "V" of wings returning
Wild geese on wind from down south
Oh how I love springtime turning
When icey ponds melt to rivers running out
When I see branches budding
Sap pails hung on maple trees
I can feel fresh wind blowing
My life blood warms to a new degree
Feel that springtime coming
Ices melt down to the sea
Crisp blue days, light's returning
Come and play outside with me
Fires of winter keep us yawning
Wood piles shrink down to the ground
Now the days are getting longer
Sunshine warms all around
Soon lovers will be walking
Along roadsides and rivers
Hand in hand people talking
Enjoying all the outdoor gives us
Rain comes sprinkling down
Birds come singing round
I can feel new life coming
Coming around
On warmer winds of changes
We can smell life's pleasant fragrance
All that's new still is the same
All that grows now has a new chance
Feel that springtime coming
Ices melt down to the sea
Crisp blue days, lights returning
Won't you stay outside with me?
