In a sentence

春(はる)がspring来(き)たcame

Spring has come

How it works

が (subject) presents 春(はる) (spring) as fresh news — "spring (is what) arrived". The verb 来る(くる) (come) is irregular; its plain past becomes 来た(きた) (came), with the reading shifting to きた. Plain past, no polite ending, so it sounds like a happy little announcement to oneself.
