Unfolding flower
Shaking off the last dews
A dream of a spring
.
Snuggle the patched quilt
Share a last warming hug
To bid a soft farewell
.
Embrace the early morning
Sway in delicious greenery
A renewal of the zest of life
.
Oh fragrant meadow
Blushing in dappling gold
Only to color me happy
.
Ballerina in every step
Sniffing cherry blossoms
A play for twinkling smiles
.
Throw off the dark evenings
Laugh loudly in honeyed dusk
A time for fresh relationships
.
Thread fingers under the oak
Steal kisses in sun strands
An awakened time for loving
While I love winters, I couldn’t help but welcome spring during my lazy stroll with cherry blossoms 🙂 Open Link Night at dVerse hosted by Bill…

Beautiful photographs and the image of threading fingers under the oak definitely would put a spring in anyone’s step 🙂

this poem made me think of one of my favorites, written by John Donne – break of day –
Tis true tis day what though it be
Oh wilt thou therefore rise from me
I enjoyed reading this, and it made me smile

The first green shoots are popping up on the lawn, and, very early this morning, I heard the first ca-runks of returning geese. Spring is taking hold, here in the recently frozen north…
