One Blossom on the Tree

by Daniel Kelly - 2024
     D
Just one blossom on the tree,
G                  A
Says the winters ending,
     D                  Bm
Though other cold days still we’ll see,
     A               D
The light is now ascending,

     D      G
Hear the Spring,
          D
Hear the Spring,
          G      D
From soil and branch,
          A         D
She’s beginning to sing.

With trees still bare against grey sky,
The days still hold some sorrow,
But Daffodil has raised her head,
And warmth will come tomorrow.

The memory of winters chill,
Still lingers by the river,
But joyful chirp of finch and wren,
Welcomes the life giver,
