Spring's Masterpiece

The artist, Spring, has painted many hours
On easel earth, creating lovely flowers

Strawberry blossoms giggle, ‘look at me’
As each is a masterpiece nominee

Look at me? But there’s not enough time
To admire each showpiece so sublime

The strawberry plant, slightly a still life
Yet full of life, that seamlessly grows rife

We rejoice in those wee little blossoms
Will they be surpassed with fruit so awesome?

In the hoped-for painting upcoming
Yet pre-judgement is unbecoming

There’s no denying what Spring has created
And ‘Look at me’, never gets dated

We’re very grateful that we visited
This masterpiece Spring has exhibited

Sprlng certainly does paint in the most beautiful hues, both pastel and bold. Nice line to portray earth as her easel.
