February ... The Birthday Month
February is the birthday month
Though the earth is cold and bare
Lying underneath the snow and Ice
New growth is now stirring there.
Far down below and still unseen
Under the winter’s ice and snow
There comes a large surge of rebirth
When bulbs and seeds begin to grow.
It affects all of us here as well
You can feel its power in your heart
You find new energy and joy returns
As the dark and dreary days depart.
For the sun is getting stronger now
Snowdrops pop up through the snow
The signs of new life are beckoning
You’ll find this wherever you go.
Birds are singing now in the trees
Gardens are showing a hint of green
Nature is busy painting pictures
That are so tranquil and serene.
February is the shortest month
Yet it is the one that holds the key
That wakens up a whole new world
To folk just like you and me.
Yes! February has a special role
For a month not just for a day
It keeps on bringing us new life
A yearly lasting Real Birthday.
