Notes About The Poem

Contance's Three Beautiful Lines Contest ~ March 6, 2025

Spring's First Heartbeat

"Spring's first heartbeat honors Winter's last breath."
                                    ~ Angie Westland Crosby


When Winter finally rests her weary head on a pillow
Spring smiles and warmly welcomes it as her cue
To wake sleeping crocus bulbs and buds on willows

Lin, it's clear you have seen the signs in the past. It is something we all look forward to. We have lilly sprouts that have come up in the past few days. It's a real pleasure to see these transitions. Smiles!!

I'm seeing the first signs of Springs birthing now, Duke. The new buds, robins arriving, pollen covering everything! lol I wish I had a garden to see flower sprouts coming up. Thanks for your comments and smiles, Duke.

This is your kind of poetry… very Haiku-ish. Thanks, Tania.

Thank you very much, Tom. It’s been warm here, then cold then… roller coasters weather.
