"She turned to the sunlight and shook her yellow head, and whispered to her neighbor, Winter is dead. " Quote _A.A. Milne Waiting for the Aspens to put on their emerald gowns, oh, I have been busy preparing my garden space; so ready to say farewell to all the faded browns, ready to plant seeds and to Spring totally embrace ! My sweet window boxes are full of earth just waiting, hanging baskets are dangling in anticipation; waiting to create my Spring garden is frustrating, but, soon I will be the envy- for with my creation ! I will have herbs and Sunflowers and Nasturtium in one box, and boxes with nectar wildflowers for butters' and bees; I will have purple, yellow and pink blooms and Phlox and baskets will be cascading jewels in the breeze ! ______________________ April 26, 2022 Poetry/Rhyme/Getting Ready For Spring Copyright Protected, ID 04-1451-105-26 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Spring Rhyme 8-12 Lines sponsor, Tania Kitchin, Judged 05/14/2022 First Place

A challenge every year I'm sure, but well worth the effort when the blooming begins. A wonderful job of creating the scene. Your imagery and variety of plants was pleasant to imagine. Thanks for sharing, and good luck in the contest. A poet friend in Texas, Bill
