although cold and dark persist
the woods embark on greening
in moss, lichen, the needles of young pine
The Woods Endeavor
Welcoming Spring
kitchen sink
window sill
orchid bloom
The Greening Undaunted
the iris keep on
despite discouraging
evidence and occurances
Two Trees Crossed Like Skis
that secret place
we found
where winter welcomes spring
Portent Of Spring
as sunlight illuminates
a spot of green
faith restored
Hope On The Horizon
morning silence broken by
the whisperings of
delicate colors
From The Past The Future
shadow of the hollyhock’s
gift wrapped seeds
ghost of summer, prophet of spring
To The Right And Left
here in the center
of the spring garden
hope materialized and amassed
Overture
spring time’s
sublime slow opening
of raindrops and subtle hues
Sprinkling
they come in
by popping up
blue flowering rainstorm
Azalea In Spring
spring’s verdant touch
awakens the valley
so many beginnings
the universe unfolding
Swarm
like bees in a swarm
the trees industrious
in pollen production
A Good Morning
sunshine and new blooms
the kind of day
that heals hearts
Tender And True
more cherished for
winter’s long wait
spring’s hospitality of abundance
Trumpeting Joy
daffodils in part comprise
the cheering section
for spring
Early Spring Party Guest
one of the first to arrive
forsythia’s hostess gift
the light of a flowering sun
Elegance
a flowering baton
conducting the first notes
of the symphony of spring
Good Counsel
morning found me fragile
the crocus advised
of its potential
In The Greenhouse
immerse in
the color and scents of spring
still too fragile for outdoors
Dreams At The River’s Edge
spring came
supple and green
winter threats were banished
First To Appear
glory of the snow
their bravery belies
their tiny size
April On The Marsh
a small hole
in the cloud cover
blue breaking through
On The Cusp Of Spring
the meadow
still holding
last summer’s sun
In Between
spring in her verdant glory
holding position
between the April snows
April Snow
waiting for spring
the empty bench
is filled with snow
Rush
how fast
the water hurries
chasing after spring
A Gift Of Hyacinth
we are so glad
you were forced to bloom
now scenting the house with early spring
Faith
still beneath the surface of sight
yet distinctly present
leaf buds and spring
Flurry In The Woods
winter and spring
how they dance and duel
for dominance
Fidelity
evergreens
holding the torch
for spring
