A Sea of Colour

In the corner of the field Nothing ever seemed to grow, The soil there too hard to yield, So no seed did the farmer sow. The winds though brought a visitor, Who found the corner to its taste. It set roots to pierce the soil, Too sheltered there, to go to waste. And so it grew to be revealed, Its seeds now spreading far and wide. Spring brought forth a sea of colour As bluebells, claimed the countryside. Entry for ANOTHER 2017 STUNNER - Poetry Contest Sponsored by Line Gauthier. 17/4/2018. Placed 2nd.

There's a place for everything and everything has its place, as conveyed in your wondrous poetic lines of beautiful imagery - your bluebell poem has its place in my heart, Gary. Such a lovely write! Best wishes for a win..
