Spring Morn

Daybreak’s sun awakens a pristine day
My muse somersaults with felicity
Unmarked canvas thirsts eccentricity
Spring flaunting her mesmerizing bouquet

Flirty summons through a garden gateway
May’s perfume is the most seductive plea
Like an intoxicated honeybee
I jump to greet my first vacation day

The calm after the rain jostles my heart
A swift flourish of aromatic blooms  
A bounty of inspiration for art 
A rave burst of happiness to impart

Concocting to create precious heirlooms
It’s perfect time to play Spring by Mozart

A sonneteer's sonnet, so to speak, Line! It's a FAVE for me. Thank you for a superb write/read. (btw: What make it an 'Italian sonnet?') Best wishes, Gershon
