in longing for spring
a blooming
of cold
Trees’ Desire
With What Is At Hand
old Queen Anne
her winter bloom
made of snow
Like Buttercups
yellow blossoms
adorning the path
blessing us with color
Lantana Lollipop
so sweet
she makes syrup
with the rain
Patience And Perseverance
amongst the snow
a dreaming blossom bud
and hope made manifest
Magnolia Bees
abuzz in December sunshine
the blossom hive swarms
in the afternoon light
Fly Away Home
the seeds are feathered
and ready to fledge
on the nest north wind
Her Majesty
she wears
a crown of raindrops
crocus queen of spring
Faux Mock
the mock orange
mocks again in winter
this time blossoms of snow
What Friends Do
the lily
happy to be
susan’s umbrella
Grace
the peony
bowed by the rains
dignity exemplified
Mountain Flower
blooming in the woods
for the delight
of trees
The Blossom’s Gaze
a bit
of lavender wistfulness
the longing to be outside
Black Beauty
each landing
a sacrament
of pollination
Enchantment
the garden’s stardust
comprised
of blossoms and buds
Blossom’s Bouquet
ever clever
hydrangea creates
a bouquet within her blossom
You
one among many
blooming
in common splendor
The Mercy Of Houseplants
while it snows
the primrose blooms
conjuring spring
The Green Rose
like a siren
calling to spring
bringing blossoms into being
The Blossom
morning sky
blooms
in pink and blue
Lurker
there’s Joe-Pye weed
peeking
in the window
Rocketship
speeding towards
the setting of seed
destination perpetuity
At Once Twice Seen
water lily’s
doppelgänger
pierces the pond
Second Bloom
this time
raindrops bloom
into shimmering flowers
Recluse in ClapBoard
shy yellow house
her sun blinded window eyes
squinting through the blooms
It Was Said In Blossoms
three paragraphs
in blue and pink and white
is how spring told her story
Spring Tracery
the grand design
each leaf and petal
in it’s perfect place
Saturation
so delicate
the density
of color and joy
Blue Only At The Edges
of the blue diamond
a new perfection
She Wears
with which
to charm the bees
