May is more than half gone and it is still pretty cold here. We have had rain and high temperatures in the mid-50s for several weeks now. The Germans tell me that the weather is unseasonably cool. Spring will come eventually. Oscar's German class at school must have had a lesson about Spring (der Frühling):
German children like to sing a little jingle about Spring. The words were written on the back of the coloring sheet:
Immer wieder kommt ein neuer Frühling.
Immer wieder kommt ein neuer März.
Immer wieder bringt er neue Blumen.
Immer wieder Licht in unser Herz.
Rough translation:
Always again (or "again and again") comes a new spring.
Always again comes a new March.
Always again it (March) bring new flowers.
Always again light in our hearts.
I found a YouTube video of some children singing the song.
