Best Snowdrops Poems

You blossom too soon dear snowdrops of spring
Secluded in the cold dark earth;
The white flakes that fly still haunt the sky
Too weary with sorrow to salute your birth.
One warm day awakened you from sleep
And sang with springtime’s soft breath;
Caressed your eyes with the lips of...

sun shines through the clouds
peeping through the thawing soil
one single snowdrop

Each reel of snowflake leaves behind,
fine traces of her glowing days,
a melancholy cast of mind,
while color sets the world ablaze.

Where flies a gold and opal whirl,
as the moon's lulling course disbands,
and chilly winds of winter swirl,
the hardened heart against it stands.

And yet this night contrives...

Falling softly to the ground
Nipping at your nose...

The first snowdrops appear
After a long winter

Oh sweet little snowdrop, so pure and white,

Why doth thee droop thou beautiful head low?

When thou brightens up the woodland so bright,

Thou indicates coming of Spring so go

Illuminate thou surrounding woodlands

With thou beauty for all natures splendor,

Teach us natures necessary demands

So raise thy head dear...

white on white piercing 
green shoots of blades prevailing 
a wintry edging 

ice crystals thawing 
thriving snowdrops replenished 
spring’s intimacy...

Arctic bubbles caressing dusk,

evanescent froths  gather hearts

illuminating jeweled kisses; lovers

making nudges of pleasure quietly…

razzle-dazzle! Snowdrops twinkle upon

vibrant winter  xeroxing youthful zings!

Little snowdrops first to show

In huddled bunches here and there,

Peeping through new-fallen snow

To blossom in the frosty air.

Harbingers of coming spring

Winter's in it's dying throes,

Time for life to burst anew,

Time for dormant seeds to grow....

The treetops tremble as brisk breezes blow

bare branches; tap, tap, tapping, to their beat.

Soon Spring starts showing signs Winter will go

slip-sliding away; accepting defeat.

She slowly melts ice into soggy snow,

and Her subtle scent smells so sugar-sweet

She summons snowdrops and tulips to grow.

Rebirth
pushing forward
like the Phoenix rising
from its crusty crypt of ashes
to soar again and sing its song of Spring
Earth erupting in luscious life
snowdrops sigh with relief
splendorous Spring
Rebirth...

Soring starting to peer through the ground,
Snowdrops and crocuses all around.

The silent sounds of spring,
What good weather God will bring.

The beautiful house standing tall,
An exquisite home for relatives all..

The gentle buds and white and purple blooms,
Sprouting as the snow thaws and looms.

What a delight to...
