Hi again! We hope that you all feel that spring is in the air!

This month we are happy to be able to welcome one new member - Sis Misty! Welcome, Misty, glad you could join us!

Poetry requests that we've had include poetry for an award page for one of the winners of the SOLP Wishes award and a birthday page. We'd love to get many many more requests! Remember, we're here at your service, so if you're making a special page that you feel needs a poem, don't hesitate a second to e-mail Sis Marianne at marianne-e@telia.com or Sis Rita at curbuse@earthlink.net asking for poetry! *S*

We have of course also celebrated Easter, by putting up some Easter poems. If you'd like to read them, they are at http://www.geocities.com/poetrycommittee/easter.html.

Here is this month's relay poem, hope you like it:

~Spring is here~

Can you hear the birds a singing!
Hear how lovely their songs are clinging!
Open your self to all the spring sounds!
It's spring and our joy should know no bounds!

The birds are wishing you a wonderful day!
The sky has turned a lovely blue -
no longer drearly gray!
The trees now have buds that show new life!

Old Man Winter, be gone with you,
And let the buds come forth anew.
May Day's coming, with ribbons we,
Will plait the skies for all to see.

Now hurry rain, and healthy dew,
Our roses have dire need of you.
For all things grow from Mother Earth,
It's warm, it's spring, again rebirth.
