Spring

...and through the morning clouds
rays of sunshine show,
flashing off the tulips,
setting their colours aglow.

Daffodils point their faces
toward the sunlight beams
on this tranquil morning
as dew on petal gleams.

Welcome is the Spring,
now that Winter's passed,
for this season of rebirth
flies away so fast.

My garden, newly planted,
in colours radiant and true, 
is Nature's blessed therapy
as I enjoy the view.

Hope you are well, Francine... spring has sprung in Ontario, FINALLY. :D They will be repairing our balcony this summer (horrors!) which will mean two months of noise, faces at my sliding doors and lots of dust. I continue to poke at bears, well, no, lol, more like gun for the windmills, helplessly. Hope your daughters are well, too, and that you get to vacation with them, again,soon, as I know that brings you much happiness. Take care... Cyndi
