Springtime - Jess Klein

The old woman who lives in my head

Throws open the window and breathes in

The sun is exploding, the sky sparkles blue

Joy overwhelms her

Life is a boon

She says it is springtime now

It is springtime now

And the chill of my past rests behind me

The narcissus she planted last fall

She’d really forgotten, the snow and all

Oh, Mother Nature, you lifted the gloom

Then turned to remind us

Love renews

And it is springtime now

It is springtime now

And the chill of my past rests behind me

And I’m not alone

The sun is in the sky

The mother of creation never dies

Oh, I’m not alone

The sun is in the sky

And even when it sets, the moon will rise

High on a mountain, where I’ve never been

That’s where I’m going

Sheer strength of my chin

The glory of strength is not fast

But now that I know this

I deserve it at last

And it is springtime now

It is springtime now

Thank you my friends, thank you my family
