Notes About The Poem

- April -

Spring marks the end of winter and start of summer
It is lovely with colorful contrasts
Norway is a long country with a lot of mountains and valleys
Wide variations in climate from south to north and from east to west

Migrant's return, and the first flower is coltsfoot
Both humans and animals awakened by hibernation with new energy
The sun is high, no snow falls and the birds singing
Small downy mouse ears to be leaves on birch tree

Paul Callus April 4, 2016 at 4:16 PM Hi Anne Lise! I would love to enjoy spring in Norway; it sounds delightful! Here in Malta spring arrived early, and in my garden the medlars are rounded, yellow and juicy! hugs // paul Anne-Lise Andresen April 11, 2016 at 12:38 PM - Beautiful plums tree in beautiful flowering,with juicy fruits :) Paul Callus April 5, 2016 at 6:36 AM Maltese medlars (Japanese plum) have white flowers which then give place to edible yellow fruit. It's best eaten fresh, but it can be made into preserves. [look it up under 'naspli'] hugs // paul Anne-Lise Andresen April 5, 2016 at 4:44 AM - I do not know what "medlars" is Paul..... maybe oranges or lemons? - Thanks for the pleasant visit and lovely comment :) - hugs //Anne-Lise :)
