Spring
Spring was here
The dark skies opened
Its canopy for pristine clouds
To crown the blue mountains
I opened the windows
To breathe in its freshness
Smiled at the love birds
That had made their winter home
In the corners of my home
Twittering and shrieking
When I rolled up
Their covered enclosures
I walked in my pansy quad
Glowed to see the saplings
Of the seeds I had sown
A season ago
Had started flowering
The pansies smiled in the ferns
Like school children in a play
Everyday I saw their stages
From budding to blooming
Like the birth of my children
In a season of love
