White
crystals form a ragged blanket
Drip,
dripping into holes
Moistening
the dirt beneath
Snow
unravels; loosing silver threads
And up jumps
Spring!
Pop, pop,
pop!
Green starts
exploding
Pushing past
the heavy earth
Stems and
leaves racing up
Spreading
color in profusion
Crocus wins,
first in bloom
Cupped petals
balanced on the green
Striped
tulips tumble in the breeze
Golden daffodils
light up the garden beds
Tight hyacinth
buds burst open
Filling the
air with sweet Spring smells
Oh Spring is
here!
Sing it out:
Spring’s returned
Dance while
the earth leaps up
Rejoice!
Yes, this caught the transition from winter to spring :) nice
ReplyDelete"Snow unravels; loosing silver threads"-- So gorgeous. Beautiful piece.
ReplyDeleteIf this was just true.. today the snow returned after a week of spring.. but I guess it''s what happens..
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree with bwfiction. I especially liked "green starts exploding Pushing past the heavy earth" - a new way for me to look at things, thank you :-)
ReplyDeleteyour title had me smiling...and it only got better from there. If anything can get me excited and active, it is the "up-jumping" of spring :-)
ReplyDeleteSpring does jump up at us, doesn't it. "Happy" verbs in this.
ReplyDeleteOf course with a name like Silver Gardenia you'd write a fun, exciting spring poem!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Simply Beautiful! So happy spring is here. And I love that you point out the crocuses win, blooming first. I just wish they stayed around a little longer. This made me smile. Peace, Linda
ReplyDeleteSpring springs into motion with all its glory. You captured it well with the garden verbs!
ReplyDeletebeautiful write... I'm HYPED that spring is finally here
ReplyDeleteJumping spring sings high of Winter's freest green locked low.. and far away.. the signs of life are high in life.. when green returns its song.. of life..:)
