Reason A. Poteet Poet Verse

The Spring Cometh

Bare winter trees begin to grow;
driving around, I watch nature's show.

shafts of light among taller, barren trunks
dogwoods blossom, a herald
as the woods come to life

Raindrops chase raindrops by design 
and April beckons a flash flood.
The muddy streams now fill their banks,
daffodils and Bradford pears bud.

bird nests sporting eggs
yards gussied up for Easter
resurrection nears
