Serenity of Spring

Lying in a verdant meadow
Underneath a cherry tree,
Pastel blue and blushing blossom
Form a perfect canopy.

Honeybees are sipping clover,
Fragile wings are taking flight,
And a heavenly aroma
Fills my senses with delight.

Fleecy clouds with time to linger
Bring a slowly changing scene
Warm embrace of blissful springtime 
Leaves me joyful and serene.

Such a delightful and peaceful ode to a lovely spring day. I can feel my blood pressure going down just reading this, imagining the "Fleecy clouds with time to linger" and the honeybees kissing clover. Serene.

I'm glad that I've brought a little peace into your day, John. I used to love looking up at the changing cloud patterns as a child and have always appreciated the wonderful free, floral fragrances abounding in nature especially at this time of year. I am so pleased that your dizain received recognition by the way. It was a fun ride!
