Spring Is Coming Soon

Spring is coming soon - and thank the Lord! Resplendent blossoms renovate each tree. It cannot get here quick enough for me, Nor does it linger long. The shining sward Gleams, garlanded with daisies. Every pond Is laced with life! I love to see the spawn, Surmising that the lambs, so lately born, Can frolic in the fleeces they have donned, Occasioning the watchfulness of ewes. March hares are up on haunches, sparring hard, Ignoring me with haughty disregard, Neglecting normal safety norms. For shoes, Gigantic oaks wear boots of bluebell blooms, Surprising us with old-and-gnarled-and-new! Obliging insects fertilize the plumes Of furled-out flowers, iridescent blue, Narcissus and nasturtium, breaking through! Sunday 26 March, 2017
