Robins Dart

As the Robins dart across the grass
Ignoring the clouds of gray
Cold breeze and cold dry air
Every so often they bob their heads
Eating a bug or seed something to me unseen

The Redbuds that in the wild do grow
Begin to show their true colors 
Along the roads as about our lives we go
Awaking soon to different shades of green
They'll fill the artist's canvas of woods

Each tree shows its beautiful or knarled
Structure that's not now hidden by leaf or flower
Some being stately and others 
Seem to be dower some look as
Though being crownded or shaped 
By ice storm or children playing on tender limbs

Soon the full canvas will be painted
With all the colors of spring bringing
To mind love and romance of the springtime
A time of sunny days with just enough warmth
Color, aroma, and scent of spring flowers
To fill all hearts with those desires..amore

Lovely transition of nature transforming as only nature may. You have succeeded in taking the reader in tow and bringing them into your world. Something I believe is a tough task. Beautifully constructed and presented.

The robins have shown up here too Sara. This is a good sign that warm weather is soon to come. They are a welcome sight to me, I'm certainly ready. I received some onions that I had ordered in the mail today. I will get them in the ground soon, it it doesn't rain. I like to plant onions while it is still cold, and let them take root, and be ready when it warms up. Agape, Moses
