Early Spring

*A Collaboration The snow that shrinks in the glen and the wood Would gladly stay through the spring if it could. While clouds have flown to free the sapphire sky, The liquid snow of winter tumbles by. It melts into puddles of liquid gold As the sun's growing warmth exiles the cold. The warming sun highlights the tips of trees, Inviting new growth, encouraging bees. The swaying daffodils are in full bloom, Yet others sleep in Mother Nature’s womb. Tiny green buds are peeking from the trees And big, white blossoms are soon to be seen! The spring flowers raise their heads to the sun, Soon to be used for Easter bonnet fun. *In the order they appear here, these seven couplets were written by: Craig Cornish, Isaiah Zerbst, Heather Ober, David Williams, Jack Horne, Andrea Dietrich, and Seren Roberts. Thanks for participating, guys! :)

This venture turned out better than I expected. Everyone followed the theme so well that I would not have known it was written by so many different people had I happened upon it. Of course I can see that Heather did an excellent job of arranging them to achieve this result. Great spring couplets everyone!
