Flowers, Crocuses, Spring, Snow, Greens

crocuses 
          withstand March winds
dressed
         in snowflakes-
                         shivering

The first signs of spring. Those and daffodils. I always wonder how they can withstand the cold days when spring is but a whisper ... Congratulations on your top win, Janis :)) ~Sus
