Sign of repentance in spring? (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
new leaf
'sign' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'repentance in spring?' is the wordplay.
'repentance in' becomes 'new' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'spring?' becomes 'leaf' (leaf spring is a kind of spring).
'new'+'leaf'='NEW LEAF'
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for new leaf that I've seen is " Turn this over for a fresh start".)
