Spring Colors
The sky is blue, the grass is green,
The colors of spring I have seen.
Flowers of yellow, red and pink,
There are so many colors it makes me think.
Some bugs are yellow, black and brown,
I can see them on the ground.
Springtime colors make me smile,
I’m glad spring is here for a while.
