It comes and goes
That smiling sunshine
I wish it would stay
Longer than a day
One day I’m in boots
The next in sandels
One day its raincoats
The next sunglasses
Oregon springtime
Its a guessing game
Syllabic Verse

Five Golden Finches
Frequenting the green birdbath
Flashy visitors

Ah, Sunshine and flowers
Are most wondrous things
Among which I can sit for hours
Ah, Sunshine and flowers
Watered by springtime showers
Sweetest sererinty brings
Ah, Sunshine and flowers
Are most wondrous things

NaPoWriMo Day 12–Prompt: Triolet
Yellow stars
Scattered about
Nod hello
Inviting
Me to stop and watch them dance
Each day as I pass by
Shadorma
“Coming soon” the signs say
Bits of color speak loud and clear
As I walk the dreary way
Coming soon” the signs say
Birds sing of a brighter day
Spring color will soon be here
“Coming soon” the signs say
Bits of color speak loud and clear
Triolet
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
Tanka
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😊
Enjoying the new life
Springing up all around me
Singing and dancing
With the birds and daffodils
Shaking off winter doldrums
Tanka
Dreaming
Of warm soft breezes
Where colorful flowers
Dance to the sound of birdsong
Springtime
Cinquain
Upturned
Branches of hope,
Dreaming of spring’s promise,
Reach as if anticipating
New life
Cinquain
April dresses up
Seasonal springtime dance
Cherry blossom pink
Haiku
