Just January

1st:
Oh, why does the day look so dark?
When will I see the rising sun;
its first rays, like a blazing spark,
and know, for sure, that day's begun?

 

2nd:

 

Night fly away, bring back the day.
My soul, sequestered far too long,
longs, birdlike, broad bright wings, to splay
and spiral skyward filled with song.

 

Chorus:

 

It's just January;
the days grow brighter day by day.
Now it may seem scary
but soon you'll see the month of May.

 

It's simply the season
of darker days and ice and snow
but leaf laden trees and
flower frilled fields will bloom and grow.

 

3rd:

 

Why does the world still feel so cold?
When will I see this winter go?
I long to feel light, warm and gold.
All I see now is ice and snow.

 

4th:

 

Snow go and bring Springs avalanche
of beauty, colour, joy and warmth;
of blooms and leaves on every branch;
the miracle that Spring performs.

 

Chorus:

 

It's just January;
the days grow brighter day by day.
Now it may seem scary
but soon you'll see the month of May.

 

It's simply the season
of darker days and ice and snow
but leaf laden trees and
flower frilled fields will bloom and grow.
