Eve Roper Poet Ottava rima

Notes About The Poem

Spring Canvas

Fragments of first spring sun illuminate
A blithe wave of fluttering pinnate leaves.
Passerine dulcet birds cradled they wait
Ethereal  rain under narrow eaves.
Honeysuckle comes alive drawing straight.
Daisies bright, butterflies by the wheat sheaves.

Around garden's heart breathing once anew
A spider's web in tears form morning dew.
