counting crocuses we walk,
taking snowdrop stops,
sharing with the afternoon,
joys of two boys now it's spring....

Primrose has her say
whilst Bluebell brings in May...

pushes through earth’s icy shawl

It begins to stir-

arousing from a deep sleep

by the warmer sun.

When that one snowdrop appears-

we know Spring will soon be here.

on deadly cold day
when garden appears quite dead
grey dominating
I found a small miracle
white snowdrop braving weather

walking in the soft snow one day
purse empty awaiting my pay 
a snowdrop  I could see
as though saying to me
riches can be found in many ways.

Weary
on a cold morning
days ahead
like fence posts on a moor
Chatter of guns
Fear of boots in the corridor
Smell of the ward
The same old room

Only love
is a snowdrop on a bomb site
a smile in the teeth of death

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

Spring
Splendid, sublime
Stimulating, scintillating, soothing
Sunshine, snowdrop, Sunburn, sweat-sores 
Sizzling, sweating, sweltering
Sticky, sultry

SWAN LAKE

Enchantment divine
Lissome swan gracefully died
White floral bouquet.


PETALS

Rainfall on white rose
Demise of fragile beauty
Petals on the ground.


SNOWDROP

A winter warrior
Brings heartfelt moment of joy
Delicate snowdrop....

A simple daisy
yet  exquisitely formed
white and gold abound


My blackbird follows
me around in the garden
cheerful tune emits


snowdrop  so lovely
you poke up your head through snow
 glistening snow white


a robin redbreast
tugged at a juicy worm
he was so pleased...

Asterisms flicker
one sleek obsidian night;
solstice slips away

Snowdrop shoots nosing
petals into bitter winds;
first whispers of spring

Sparkling laughter runs
among the pebbles and reeds;
melt-water music

Bright blue, wet green days
wash away winters lather;
vernal equinox....

The first six days;
a cold stage
waiting for snowdrop

orphans;then the rest,
the sky of constant sorrow
breaking thanks to brittle

light.The white bones
devoid of recall,the crust
of cold loam hanging

alone.Travel this way
again.missing on a thrown road.
It waits....

I found you on St Brigid's Day,
Your brave little heads had pushed through
To feel the cold crisp February air.
Standing tall and strong, determined.
White blossoms dancing,
Celebrating that Spring was here, 
Your perfect petals dancing in the wind,
Bringing hope to my day. 
Like Brigid, you took away all my despair....

Crystal dewdrop jewels pendent from leafless Hawthorne
over snowdrop pearls and early golden buds of daffodil.
A blackbird upon Sparrow, Peggy Gladys does adorn,
while morning light accentuates the name of Mitchell, Bill.
I look behind, my footsteps in the dew a path have worn,
past Throwers by the row, as well as Bunting, Jane. Stowe, Daniel....

Verses 
 
Should I have lived a life
Without upsetting anyone 
I’ll sulk in my grave 

Should I have lived a life
Without the madness of love 
Bewails will rot my coffin 

 Should I have lived a life
Of politeness and good manners 
Howling wind my voice 

Should I have lived a life
Not seen the beauty of a snowdrop
Black soil and blindness...

Sweet flux of rippling stream’s dulcet strain 
stunning mythic creeks dream haze
stone amulets graze mohs
scale of gold rush hardness
svelte limb pink bouquet clouds 
span azure blue awning’so heavenly cascade 
sedge-warbler skims grass shoots
springtime speeds snowdrop surge

patches of green grass
snowdrop flowers
the sky blue

the sun shining
birds chirping songs
snow mountains

There was a crowd, I recall, sometime somewhere
close to the edge of spring's fresh green burgeoned heath
and cold winter’s forest dark, I met you there.
A fresh blossom virgin white, lonely, beneath
the canopy of ancient oak, whose cold shade
could not becloud your so captivating shine
made conspicuous amid the purple glade
of bluebells, a snowdrop, singular, divine....
