First Spring

little hands clap at first sighting of a butterfly little face smiles at first sighting of a sunflower little fingers wriggle at first sighting of a centipede little arms flap at first sighting of an eagle little brow wrinkles at first sighting of a squirrel little cheeks blush at first sighting of cherry blossoms

Good to hear from you, SuZ! When our inner child is still responsive to all forms of life around us, then our relationship with nature is on a good footing. Be well, David

this is really cool how you likened the sightings to the baby's reactions. I like to write this way sometimes too. Love it.

Thank you for your comments, Andrea. I like to leave a lot to the reader's imagination, so the lines may appear very minimalistic. Be well, David
