The Flowering Almond

Orchard of ruffles,
Exploding light-pink petals:
A blizzard of bloom.

You are a master with these short poems. The creative imagery is a fresh perspective. I especially like the last line. Thank you for your kind comments. Have a good weekend. Karen

Love it! This speaks pretty well for the past summer here in Michigan...an explosion of green. Somehow an elderberry tree has sprouted in our back yard...birds having a ball. Love, daver
