Springtime Dawns

Springtime dawns


Springtime dawns
just beyond
the screen door,
across the porch
Dew swept lawn,
emerald weave
shimmering moisture
collecting foot prints
strolling towards

an arched entryway
gingerbread trimmed,
covered in jasmine
alive with rainbow
flutters, prismatic
butterfly wings
partaking of
nature’s pure nectar

Beneath it a
flagstone walkway
abstract stones
assorted shapes
and patterns
meandering through
lavender and hollyhock,
daisies and tulips

and upon it
you and me
hand in hand
watching the sunrise
wash the sky
in floral hued quivers 
as we welcome another
beautiful day
of love



Good morning Soupers

Thank you Lenna so very much. It is like that here today as well, I was hoping the poem would entice the sun to come out, but that hasn't happened yet. Wait a minute, here it comes...I think it was your wonderful comment that made it shine. :)
