Poetic Thoughts to Welcome Spring

Ah, it's springtime, no doubt! What better way to welcome Spring but with our poetic thoughts and reflections. My friends, let's enjoy and appreciate (and be thankful to God for) the beauty of nature in springtime!

"...And Spring arose on the garden fair

Like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere

And each flower and herb on earth's dark breast

Rose from the dreams of its wintry rest."

---Percy Bysshe Shelley, "The Sensitive Plant"

"...The nymph of springtime I am

Eyes bright, with tomorrow's promise

And hope for buds

And seeds to bloom

For dreary canvass to shed

Into a kaleidoscopic world."

---Leofina Jane Galleta, "Springtime"

Thanks YouTube and the uploader of the video I used and embedded in this blog post. Thanks Google and Blogger, as always!

And, now, folks, here's a product of my literary attempts. I do hope you like it. Thank you very much.

The Glowing Spring

When the sun is up

And the sky is clear

There is warmth all over 

There is no more fear.

As the land turns green

Our vision's keen

And everyone gets excited 

For the arrival of Spring.

While the sea is inviting

To beach-lovers cavorting

We hear melodious sounds of Spring

Welcoming the renewal and revival

Of living and loving

In sunny, glowing Spring!

We see flowers blooming

Leaves of tress sprouting

Birds of same color chirping and singing

Butterflies fluttering

While busy bees buzzing, humming

Life---so wonderful in Spring!
