How Did the Sky Get So Blue?

by Sara Watkins

“How Did the Sky Get So Blue?” read by Sara Watkins.

While you were busy sleeping,
outside the world was peeking,
peering, seeking,
steadying itself for something new.

The flowers, they were speaking.
The birds set themselves to cheeping,
chirping, beeping,
preparing for something new.

The sun, well, it started rising,
and then, something so surprising:
arriving and arising,
Spring came like something new.
