Spring Showers

Soft sunlight streams through Nimbus clouds A sign, a foretaste of coming spring When hills and fields bring forth rich foliage From humble green grass to royal heather Flaunting peacock colors to honor the day As clouds release their crystalline drops Lovers’ laughter echoes as they run for shelter B’neath the old willow tree, they stand; lost in warm embrace Soon, a hush will fall as sweet jasmine floats When hungry lips taste the first kiss of spring ~*~

Very nicely written, my dear Annalise, about the much anticipated coming of spring! However, we are in the midst of a major ice storm at present! Of course this Canada and we should be used to it by now! Your poem brightened up an otherwise crummy day! LOL Thank you... love and hugs, Jack xoxox

Words like crystalline and Nimbus were treats to read. You've expressed Spring, in all her glory, very well. Good luck on the contest!

Thank you Linda...with the 90 degree weather here on the east coast, it seems like we skipped spring and stepped into summer!
