Spring Break has begun!

Spring break has just begun for me and I am so thrilled that it has! Hopefully it will be memorable one, and what better way to start this lovely day off than with a poem about spring written by one of my favorite poets Emily Dickinson :)

I have a Bird in spring 
Which for myself doth sing -- 
The spring decoys. 
And as the summer nears -- 
And as the rose appears, 
Robin is gone

Yet I do not repine 
Knowing that Bird of mine
Though flown -- 
Learneth beyond the sea 
Melody new for me 
And will return.

Faster in a safer hand 
Held in a truer Land 
Are mine -
And though they now depart, 
Tell I my doubting heart
They're thine. 

In a serener Bright
In a more golden light
I see
Each little doubt and fear, 
Each little discord here
Removed. 

The will I not repine, 
Knowing that Bird of mine
Though flown
Shall in a distant tree
Bright melody for me
Return.
