The Earth has made another turn
Beautiful spring has rolled around
Looking out the kitchen window, I see
Little tulips peeking through the ground
Feeling the sun upon my face
Watching the birds as they return
Thanking God for all His blessings
Yet, it's for you that my heart yearns
Remembering how you loved the flowers
We grew and tended side by side
The jovial sound of your laughter
And when I lost you, how I cried
Though spring is a time of renewal
And trees and flowers come back to life
My heart and mind won't accept the fact
That I'm a widow now, not a wife
Yet the Earth will keep on turning
Different seasons will come and go
The memory of you suspended in time
Forever etched in the winds that blow
Sometimes it hurts to recall those times
And all the fun things we used to do
Springtime reminds me of tulips
But, everything reminds me of you
