Listen to poem:

Yet Another Spring

White and red and pink
oleanders bloom--
they are blown in wind,
littering grass and
drying on the bricks
of my front patio.
Orchid trees are flowering,
and royal poncianas.
Surprising jacarandas stun;
orange blossoms, honeysuckle, 
jasmine, and acacia assail the senses,
while I, alive, enjoy
yet another
Spring!

A divine verse, pulling me along the path, over the bricks...I see the patio and the wonder of this new spring you write about in poetic bliss. Cynthia
