Is my eyes playing tricks?

Is it true, can my eyes be deceiving me?
Or is that really the sun? Can it be true.

I felt the warmth. I am only using a sweater.
Can that be true, or have I finally gone over
the edge?

Do I even dare to mention all of this?
Do I dare actually mouth the words of
Spring.

For I fear, if I actually say it out loud,
it will all go away and once again my
lawn will be white.
