September Spring

Tui birdsong starts again, melodious warbling bitter southerly wind still bites sleet, horizontal and cold, flattens the daffodils sudden rays of bright warm sunshine race over paddocks vivid green grass juxtaposes clear blue sky Earth warms

This is gorgeous poetry, and if I had not been looking more for memories instead of September descriptions, I think it would have got a top placement!

Thanks Andrea, I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. You're absolutely correct, it didn't really fit the brief, but I couldn't help myself and entered it anyway :)
