“Spring” | SPRING POEM of the week

Martha Snell Nicholson (1898?-1953)
Published in 1938 in Wings and Sky

We thank Thee, Lord, that Thou dost bless
Us with this springtime loveliness,

These skies, the bluest ever seen,
These fields and pastures tender green,

Where the cattle drowse and sleep,
And the meadow grass is deep.

Countrysides in golden broom,
Orchards all a drift of bloom,

Buttercup and daffodil,
Grasses blowing on a hill.

We thank Thee for remembering
Us with these gifts, this lovely Spring!
