///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 


seeing hyacinths
transform grey with blue and green
is like hearing Brahms

 
crocuses are shy
but spring sun makes them tipsy
so they bloom anyway
 
 
a yard full of sticks
makes me give March dirty looks
'til she sends flowers
 
 

a little pear tree
that has to stretch to get sun
polka dots white
 
 
 
spring is popping corn
that is blue instead of white
think they're called bluets
