Senses of the Season

I see the sunrise in the eastern sky, its morning rays caressing clouds of pink as freshness in the air says Spring is nigh. I hear the mockingbirds, their trills in sync, as notes caress this April morn so fair while calling for a mate with which to link. I smell the scent of jasmine in the air, and thoughts of love begin to fill my mind while strolling on this morn without a care. I taste the sweetness which I long to find, like honeysuckle kisses that adorn, this April day that nature has designed. I feel the tender moment of this morn that only springtime’s essence can impart as souls refresh and all of life reborn. Sensations served by nature a-la-carte as senses of this season fill my heart. April 23, 2020

"Sensations served by nature a-la-carte" wonderful summation - fun play on words - love the integration of the senses at the beginning of each verse matching them to spring. Masterfully written John. Enjoyed it and your creativity! Happy spring!
