Spring Buds

Seedlings drift on cool spring breeze
Gently floating on each gust of wind
 Falling slowly into deep crevices
Touching the fertile earth below
 Branches shed dried remains of winter
Barren trees now enhanced
 by various shades of green
Newly formed buds appear
 Dew drops kiss colored blossoms
The sun beams with all it's charm
 New growth steadily emerges
Spring adorns her dress of green.

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 7/8/2015 2:08:00 PM - Spring is really beautiful, giving us hope of new life - a beautiful poem, dear Phyllis (7) - Hope all is well with you :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Phyllis Babcock Date: 7/8/2015 2:23:00 PM Yes spring brings new life and is beautiful. In the midst of smoke from forest fires in our province. Hard to breathe some days as it gives you a headache and hurts the chest. Not good for anyone with breathing problems right now. Have a wonderful week. love phyl
