I love spring and all the bright spring flowers, the daffodils, tulips the pansy blooms; oh, I even love those warm spring showers. I am drunk on all the flower scent fumes, putting vases of blooms in all my rooms; and some to brighten up family tombs. Oh, welcome back sweet butterflies flying, I love you all- the orange and the blue; fluttering, drifting- I feel like crying. Sweet, sweet painted ladies in every hue, sometimes you come alone, at times a crew; come, kiss the flowers that for you- I grew. A robin finds a fat worm on my lawn, little sparrows are gathering for nests; and all the birds start their singing at dawn. I love the concert- do not think them pests, oh, woodpecker does tap, tap, taping tests; a hummingbird lands on my hand and rests. I have been waiting all winter for spring; for you beloved spring- I want to sing. ___________________________ March 28, 2019 Poetry/Sonnet/Spring At Last Copyright Protected, ID 19-1128-273-02 All Rights Reserved.

Congratulations Constance! Your poem earned a distinguished place in my contest. This contest was very tough to judge because I was very strict on Rhyming, well done my friend, Emile.

oh Constance what a stunning springtime sonnet with such vivid imagery bursting out of every stanza, love the rhyme you used and had to smile at the flowers on the tomb, still a touch of melancholy in your poem:-) hugs jan xx
