SSL – Spanish as a Second Language

La Primavera, que significa “primer verdor”,

es una estación del año muy bonita

ya que los árboles empiezan a florecer

y en los campos se ven multitud de colores.

Esta estación ha inspirado a muchos poetas a escribir sobre ella…

Ya alegra la campiña

la fresca primavera;

el bosque y la pradera

renuevan su verdor.

Con silbo de las ramas

los árboles vecinos

acompañan los trinos

del dulce ruiseñor.
