‘Spring in the Air’ I woke up at 5 this morning To the birds singing in the trees I laid back in my sack with my ears pinned back Like a concert with no entry fees The silence was Golden With that lick of clean spring air Just the song from a Thrush and her mates it was lush They were Two metres apart to be fair The morning dew on the grass Then the blue sky just appeared Not a cloud in sight now the birds songs slight Like a support act for the gig we cheered For a moment in these sad times I was free from all the hype The negative news and the smouldering fuse That seems to be smoked in a not peace pipe I thought long about my family My lovely mother dearest friends some foe My gorgeous son and his incredible mum Let this virus turn around and go ! My work colleagues my lovely neighbours Did they hear the same as me With the early song birds not short on words Chirping from the top of the trees For what is going on out there This morning’s gig instilled great vibes We are safe at home like a dog with a bone For our NHS we are full of pride Hats off to all our Posties On the front line been selected From our young and old some all alone They help keep us all connected Hats off to these volunteers Like worker Bees to their queens fresh hive They now take to the zone not a hint of a drone To help keep our human race alive What heart and pride they show Please all return fit and well We can all reflect show pure respect Let’s pray there’s no sequel !
