Awakening Of Spring

If perhaps a little early

curious pretty primroses

countenance be joyful,

as sun glances between

rain clouds enriching

creation.

 

I would plummet into

swirling spiral that is

dreamy in nature,

drifting along

forgotten river where

reflections of tall trees

brush fingertips.

 

At night where Freya's

snowdrifts mantle the

earth; those romantic

hearts twinkle like

stars...their world is

silent.

 

Colours are put to bed

as March Hare rests his

weary head, hiding

images in beauty whose

darkness is awe-inspiring,

 

where at water's edge

upon grassy bank;

nymphs wait for trees

to be dressed in Summer's

green, and blankets of

bluebells arise...they've

thirsted to be seen.

 

Those blooms rest in

half-moonlight, shades

with splendour held in

Spring's vibrancy; that

steady rhythm concealed

till dawn lights the way

once more.

March hares, nymphs and tall trees - dreamy images of spring. I enjoyed that journey from Freya's snowdrifts until dawn :)

The awakening nature with the drifting in of spring likened to what is much conceled at night until daybreak? Rhiannon

Wondrous images of evolving spring, Jenny - the dressing, blanketing, & Freya's mantling of the earth, all carried out with luminous  care & attention. Very enjoyable!

Thank you so much for stopping by to read my poem Kilb. I couldn't resist all that spring as to offer, so went a little crazy with the many images.

Your comment was much appreciated and again thank you.

Jenny.

I loved the suggestion of bluebells in moonlight - had never thought of them this way
"half-moonlight, shades

with splendour held in"
is GORGEOUS

Good morning Di,

there's so much inspiration about spring, when new life appears. Although short lived like autumn, the colours are beautiful. 

I have to say I'm enjoying this windy weather we're experiencing, it's so invigorating to walk in, and even the rain doesn't bother me. I bet it's windy where you are being by the sea...so nice for a walk along the beach. smiley

Anyway glad you enjoyed the bluebells in half-moonlight, it was something I could visualize so clearly. Always grateful for your feedback.

Many thanks.

Jenny.
