Expectations

Expectations Triumphant note of a magnolia's pearly white Wakens the sleeping ground, Beautiful ballerina Impressing all around. Herself the spotlight. Brave fragile snowdrops light the woods' darkness, Fluting, keen, white and green Like panpipes in Peruvian mountain scene Banishing starkness. Each year we come to see this lovely sight.... Now, Spring's within our scope, From Winter's chains we're free. Like children now, our hearts are light: Pilgrims and Druids we, Embracing light and hope! ****************

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
