Dazzling yellow Daffodil, how delightful thou art as
you burst through the ground in leaps and bounds
While White Lily whispers forth in pristine
perfection, a pansy of blue, silently climbs through
A beautiful Bergenia,plunges through the dirt in
purple passion, as a Pink Tulip joins the floral fashion
Red Kamelia proudly does its duty, spreading its beauty
And so the season that gives the much needed
rain,and storms that cause the most pain,also glows
with the bountiful blooms of spring that make our soul sing!
It is that silence between the colorless end of Winter and beginning of earth renewal that keeps our souls awaiting the beauty of Spring. I, like many, wait each year with anticipation for each colorful blossom.
LIKE WITH LIFE...NOTHING GOOD, COMES EASY. I LOVE YOUR IMAGERY IN THIS WONDERFUL WORK OF SPRING! THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
Eileen, to this observer spring has no bad half as it redecorates earth with unparalleled beauty - warms the flesh and ushers in the promise of rebirth - "Springs Better Half" for me is season long - not only does it make "our soul sing" it choreographs the lifeblood of promise - thank you for awakening my senses along with the revival carried on dewy spring mornings - I wish you love and peace my dear friend - Jon Michael
She has a sweet way with her diction that is fueling my affliction
Cause I really do believe her and that's stoking my spring fever
As I tend my favorite posie, which would be a yellow rosie
But she does it so much better so now I'm gonna let her;-) Patrick
Not only the beautiful, burgeoning blossoms and blooms but it is also the verdant atmosphere that you have captured here that sets our heart and souls ablaze. I do so wish I had your green fingers and thumbs, Eileen! Thank you for this exhilarating poetic bouquet! xx
how beautifully alive this is, Eileen,
it glows with health and promise and goodwill

This reads with the effect of a 'flash mob,' which name doesn't match the delight of people surprising the general public with a pre-planned musical treat. To me this was a botanical 'flash bloom.' Thanks, I feel pretty. ~~ Diana
Beautiful. I could never write a poem such as this. That doesn't mean that I can't appreciate one when I read it. You made the colors so bright and cheerful it put a smile on this old dour mug.
