3.Welcominga Spring
Being unwilling to part,
A bitter winter lingered.
Assoon as saying a farewell to him,
A lovely guestfrom afar
Gently knocks on the door.
A new sprout hidden in its shyness
Lifts a head in a gentle smile.
On a plain
Where the air is waving with heat,
A sweet aroma of flowers comes as waves
From the south.
Being filled with a throb, I prepare a spring
feast.
