Arbor of Wisteria and Clematis

Arbor of Wisteria and Clematis Memory of appealing Wisterias Uncovering the grand butterfly bush; near the lilacs and lonely gardenias; as the light essence of spring bring a rush. little fairies dance like faux ballerinas autumn's pussy willows now but a hush that coldness felt deep during winter's wrath. The equinox whispers from a warmer path Pumpkins and gourds sitting by the corn husks. this and a tasty Thimble-berry creme pie. a perched crow sits on the arbor at dusk; watching for the owl with a wary eye freshly turned garden smells of molds and musk Canada geese fly north through a morning sky A rooster sings his song with emphasis shaking the wisteria and clematis. 2/23/2021 Spring Poetry Contest Sponsor: Regina McIntosh
