Heyyyyyy Snow!

LOVE your poem!  Do you live in Australia?  South Africa?  I'm sweltering here in intense summer heat and you're writing about beautiful spring!   huh.gif

However, the poem is lovely and lyrical.  I love meter and rhyme .. just wish I could write it better.

Thanks for being the first poster in this forum!  Lovely way to begin.

Blessings,

QUOTE (Eisa @ Aug. 16 2003, 17:53)
Earth Awakes  


As birds fly home to warble songs
all nature stirs to life, and longs
to shake off winter’s sleepy break.
Springtime is here and earth’s awake.


On slender stems, exquisite leaves
become the daffodils’ green sleeves.
Their yellow trumpets raise to sing
and herald birth of verdant spring.


Twigs new and old burst out their buds,
while creatures wake and nature floods
the earth with life, refreshed from sleep;
bright meadow flowers start to peep.


The sun shines through a softened breeze
to set the scene; I feel at ease.

Just Lovely Eisa! I love the whole poem and your ending sings! MusicBand.gif

Thank you for being the first to psot in this forum. You've added a tile to the Mosaic in style!

Cheers!
