Poppy
Draped in crepe
Orange hued petals
Alive with fragility
Wind dances
Cinquain

Awakening eyes
View visionary delight
Belled beauties

Pink and white blooms
Nestled among cotton showers
Peonies and poplars

The time has come
May’s skirts rustle as she tiptoes
Through the dancing tulips
Sowing seeds of florescence
Carpeting the world with flowers

Faint fluttering flicker
Among springtime’s treasures
Seeking sustenance
Among garden beauties
Aroused from winter’s sleep

#NaPoWriMo 2019–Day 29-Off Prompt

Waking to the sound
Of a dove’s soft cooing,
My sleepy eyes delight
At sunshine, and the morning
Sounds of baby birds.
Taste awakening anew,
I touch life boldly
Smelling it’s fragrant winds that
Promise new life again.

Searching for sunshine
A tiny bud pushes forth
Roses rise again

I am glad to see my roses springing up and back to life after the hard winter we had. I lost a few plants to the cold weather but my roses all survived and are looking healthy and growing.

April sends her showers
Soft soil gives way to bring
Red Tulips in Spring

Miss Moody March marches merrily
Away again as April approches and
Rises, returning resplendently radiant
Cancelling cold, creating colorful, cheery
Happy, hopeful habitats. Hallelujah!
