Kissed by the sun
Yellow rose
Petals blushing pink
Syllable Lune
First rose of 2020 in bloom on my rose bush today.

On the garden bench
Listening for Sounds of Spring
The bumble of a bee
Mixed with robins chirring
Footfall on the path
The rustle of a brown squirrel
A dove’s wings flutter
Followed by dog barking
Sounds of life surround me

First day of Spring
Sun is shining bright
Daffodils
Sashaying
To the music of songbirds
In the gentle breeze

Blessings to all my family, friends and followers!
I hope you are all are experiencing a delightful First Day of Spring wherever you are at this time.
I do pray for those in quarantine and lockdown that they can still look outside and see the beauty of nature and for those who are shut in with illnesses at this time I pray for your speedy recovery as well.
I seem to be obsessed
By all the colors of Spring
Bee in my bonnet
I can be found snapping pics
In random neighbor’s yards

Today it was so nice out again I just had to take a walk down the block to check out all the neighborhood yards to see how much Spring growth had appeared.
Well I was pleasantly rewarded as one neighbor had an abundance of vibrant
crocus blooming. The bees and I were happy and one even paused for a pic😊
The wind around me rages
March is practicing
For her arrival
Tree branches swaying
Weaker ones hurl
As if in protest
To being awakened
From a winter’s sleep
Syllabic Verse
A spring in my step
On pink and white pathways
Cherry blossom time

My daughter’s cherry tree was in full bloom today! So pretty! So uplifting to see!
Green shoots popping up,
Patches of yellow abound,
Spring has come again!
Haiku
I felt like Chicken Little today as everywhere I went I kept saying “ Spring is here! Spring is here!”
It may not say Spring yet on the calendar but it was very present all around my area today.
I was seeing patches of yellow daffodils in my neighbors yards and green shoots of more to come soon, hearing birds singing and lawnmowers humming, smelling fresh cut grass and enjoying the bright sunshine! What a delightful change from the damp, dark, cold days of winter!
Yes, Spring weather is here and I am enjoying every moment of it!
What will this day bring?
Birds begin to sing,
What a cheerful sound!
Signs of Spring abound.
Daffodils in bloom,
Chase winter’s gloom.
Winter’s letting go,
My heart’s all aglow!
Syllabic Rhyme
Thoughts of cherry trees on
Gloomy winter afternoon
Paintbrush reads my mind
Haiku
The sun peeked out
Winter held its icy breath
Spring kissed my cheek
Haiku
As I enjoyed an unseasonably warm day of nearly 60 degrees today, my thoughts were on Spring.
