~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

tender buds sprout on persuasive branches, spring all the birds, tremble with anticipation most gather round the feeder while others sing hungry souls are enthralled by God’s creation wistful breaths of soft wind and rain remember most are thanking God this is not December as the weather befriends hearts with sunny skies washing life in love as the dark winter dies

Dear Gina, You beautifully capture the essence of spring's arrival with its marvelous imagery and uplifting tone. Your poem evokes a sense of renewal and gratitude as nature awakens from its winter slumber. The imagery of tender buds, birdsong, and sunny skies fills the heart with warmth and joy. A absolutely delightful ode to the season of rebirth. - Blessings, Daniel
