Spring

Spring

Unpredictable
Days of bursting blooms
Rollicking sunshine
Merriment on springs
Glee springs out of ice

Effervescent
Giggling downpours
Laughs at puddles
Shedding winter

Twist and shout
Rock and roll
Raucous child

Ready...
Get set...

SPRING!!!

At the moment we have, Ready, Get set.... Autumn - but this is Africa so the days are still very pleasant and mellow, the nights at present don't go below 12 degrees centigrade. I like this write very much Sam. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

So merry and gleeful, especially 'rollicking sunshine' and 'giggling downpours' - I'm betting on a win for this one :)

I had a ball writing this one. As I looked out my office window with the wind hurtling through the trees, flowers and grass all I could see was a happy wanderer gleefully returning! Thank you my friend for your happy words - made me feel happy. Hope you are enjoying the coming of spring in the north woods! All the best.

Hi LM! Your visit and delightful words put a spring in my step and smile on my face! Thank you! I'm so glad you loved this bounce into the season! I found myself using such active verbs that the last lines wrote themselves first! All the best. Blessings and prayers to you.
