The world’s wealth swept up,
While screams and trumpets don’t let up,
A visual cacophony of sound,
As the vortex spins round and round.
Scarlet horses hidden in turmoil,
The grey storm above comes to a boil.
Shreds of chaos erupt from outstretched hands,

Smell the sweet blossoms
See the pink of the flowers
Taste the succulent juice of the fruit
Love the Spring time and all its wonders...
