Welcome Are the Snowdrops

In the wood amongst the trees,
Clumps of little snowdrops spread.
Not for them the regiment,
Of perfect lines in flower beds.

Here and thereabouts they grow,
No pattern in their choice.
Whenever we encounter them,
Inside we rejoice.

For the season it is changing,
And around the corner, spring.
Welcome are the snowdrops,
And the tidings that they bring.

Happy little poem!! I just painted a snowdrop greeting card last month for my daughter-in-law to give to a friend. Snowdrop is the birth flower for January.
