The Clouds consign their treasures to the fields;
  And, softly shaking on the dimpled pool
    Prelusive drops, let all their moisture flow
      In large effusion, o'er the freshen'd world.
      - James Thomson (1), Seasons--Spring
         (l. 173)

Fair-handed Spring unbosoms every grace:
  Throws out the snowdrop and the crocus first.
      - James Thomson (1), Seasons--Sprint
         (l. 527)

It is a natural resurrection, an experience of immortality.
      - Henry David Thoreau

The first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another. The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month.
      - Henry Jackson van Dyke (2),
        Fisherman's Luck

Give me the splendid silent sun with all his beams full-dazzling.
      - Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass

'Tis spring-time on the eastern hills!
  Like torrents gush the summer rills;
    Through winter's moss and dry dead leaves
      The bladed grass revives and lives,
        Pushed the mouldering waste away,
          And glimpses to the April day.
      - John Greenleaf Whittier, Mogg Megone
         (pt. III)

Fresh as the lovely form of youthful May, when nymphs and graces in the dance unite.
      - Christoph Martin Wieland

And all the woods are alive with the murmur and sound of spring,
  And the rosebud breaks into pink on the climbing briar,
    And the crocus bed is a quivering moon of fire
      Girdled round with the belt of an amethyst ring.
      - Oscar Wilde (Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde),
        Magdalen Walks

Spring is a beautiful piece of work; and not to be in the country to see it done is the not realizing what glorious masters we are, and how cheerfully, minutely, and unflaggingly the fair fingers of the season broider the world for us.
      - Nathaniel Parker Willis

The Spring is here--the delicate footed May,
  With its slight fingers full of leaves and flowers,
    And with it comes a thirst to be away.
      In lovelier scenes to pass these sweeter hours.
      - Nathaniel Parker Willis, Spring
