Tulips On Display
T he winter weary worshipers of spring’s
U nfettered beauty wend their happy way
L eisurely through massive fields of tulips,
I n fabulous grand opening today.
P etals proudly reveal the colors bold.
S pring sunshine is fast conquering the cold.
O n and on the stream of cars is slow,
N ot wanting to miss any of the show.
D igging in my garden I am questioned
Is this the best route or the shortest way?
P utting down my tools, I rise to answer,
L egs have had their workout for the day.
A pril is a full month of tulip tours.
Y ard work must wait as long as tour endures.
