Jan Allison Poet Diminished Hexaverse

Notes About The Poem

Spring Has Sprung

Dainty daffodils
raise golden trumpets
announcing the news
the snow has melted -
mother nature thrives

Green leaves dress trees
baby birds chirp
little lambs leap
time of rebirth

Spirits lift
as sunshine
warms our face

I just
adore

Spring!

Beryl Edmonds March 6, 2021 at 6:15 PM Lovely words Jan to welcome the joys of Spring. Heard that you’re all back lockdown, let’s hope it won’t be for long for you and us too. ~ Belle :-) Jan Allison March 7, 2021 at 3:26 AM oh Belle it is dreadful here the numbers rising on a dramatic level it will be months not weeks for us, all schools now closed perhaps they should have done that when one child was infected as its spread so rapidly with the youngsters now:-(hugs jan xx

Mark Koplin March 6, 2021 at 4:44 PM "Green leaves dress trees" How true and boy am I looking forward to it. Great one Jan!! Jan Allison March 6, 2021 at 4:54 PM Its in full pomp here mark lambs in the fields and daffodils in the garden, we were due to go on 'the daffodil walk' with some of our friendship group but its cancelled because we are in lockdown. There are literally thousands of flowers by a private estate but there is a walk where the public can see the flowers:-) hugs Jan xx

J. Summers March 6, 2021 at 3:12 PM I love double D’s...daffodils and ducks. Good poem, but I expect we may get an argument or two from old man writer before it’s all over.
