Spring

Spring When the Season turns and Old Winter spent, Sudden colour blossoms on budding trees. The daffodil blooms and young Spring’s sweet scent Is gentle carried on the evening breeze. Fast changing period of restless mood, Faltering sun and uncertain showers. Sleeping souls wake from Winter solitude Aroused by Spring’s lengthening daylight hours. Migrating birds return on sun warmed wings, By shaded woodland the yellow primrose Blooms. Nights shorten and the first Cuckoo sings And all around Nature’s industry grows. Barry Stebbings 21/02/17

You have the heart of a poet -- see as a poet sees, and think as a poet thinks. Very delightful poem.

I love the transition from winter to spring and you have depicted it so vividly Barry and thankfully the days are getting longer and it lifts our spirits ... now if you could do something about the weather that would be a bonus !:-) hugs jan xx
