they gather
in the meadow
sharing kindnesses
Goddess Of The Moon
outstretched
you offer your beauty
to the whole world
Gravity
perils
of a nest
built on a slope
They Appeared From Seemingly Nowhere
a cohort
of bloodroot
laughing in the sun
Protection
last year’s thorns
guard
this year’s growth
Between The Tulips And The Iris
tiny explosion
a potency
of blue
The Garden’s Shape Emerges
spring begins
with a kaleidoscope
of greens
Bounce
discovering
joy in
everything
Power Of Intention
with the help of the sun
I focus my attention
on leafing and blooming
Enormity
its tiny size
somehow made
the joy of its discovery
more enormous
Sure Sign
robin’s red breasts
against a bright blue sky
spring arrives on wings
Equinox
a touch of snow
first day of spring
March in the Northeast
Spot Of Green
the spice of ginger
sweet sight of snowdrops
a feast for winter weary eyes
A Wishbone Branch
will spring
or snow
get the bigger piece?
Morning Sun
light bright enough
to rouse
all sleeping seeds
Keeping Company
the garden shed
and branch bench
share the wait for spring
They Meet Each Spring
enduring rock
perpetual phlox
kindreds
Illumination
lantern by
the flowering tree
beauty is the light
Interval
do nothing
see
everything unfold
Flowering Blue Sky
a petaled
hallelujah
exalting sunny days
I Remember
spring
the delicate
insistence of delight
Friendly Face
the daffodil
shares her smile
offering much needed cheerfulness
Exuberance
behold
the enormity
of tiny things
Becoming
nothing
to do
but right now
Delectatio
nothing is neutral
everything
is on its way
May Rain
each drop
nourishes dreams
of what will be
White Capped Green Mountains
snow in retreat
to the highest elevation
as spring advances
Restoration
leaves to unfurl
songs to sing
spring’s beginnings
For Hungry Eyes
sweet
the sight
of maples budding
Welcome
fleeting
glimpse of spring
blackbird visiting
