Bare Trees

They've been waiting for spring, and now it's here.

 BARE TREES

 

The trees were bare for the winter,

And hoping the season would be brief.

They were anxious for spring to arrive,

So they could finally get some re-leaf.

Your poems, usually short and so funny. I get a big smile when I get the notice you have written another one and can't wait to read it. Thanks for making my day.

Spring is at least a month late here but it is pleasant to see the trees beginning to turn green with new buds opening. "Re-leaf!" Yes! Love and peace to you, Michael,

Trees, their prayers has been answered; for I have seen some with little buds coming out!

That's a great pun!

I think the trees have brains as dense as wood. Why else would they go bare in the winter and cover up with all those leaves in the summer. I think they've got it bass ackwards!
