Nothing takes the dull out of a hot dog
Like a generous dollop of mustard
And it works as well for

The warmth of the winter sun has tempted the mustard
Into full bloom and even makes the shade of the
Old oak tree seem welcoming!

Dark And gloomy,

Up pops the mustard, bright and promising,
Spring is coming soon!
