A Walk in Wonder

by Amanda Spencer

Want to walk in wonder?

Come with me.

Come with me where the new grass grows,

And buds are bursting,

And the rose

Is pushing from an emerald sheath,

And violets peep from underneath

The wood ferns where the toadstools rise.

Oh, come with me

Where wonder lies,

Where spring is singing, springing,

And each bit of earth

Is soft and tender,

And new birth of beauty

Fills the air.

Oh, come with me and see—

There’s wonder everywhere!
