It arrives, exploding

Cherry blossom,

against a

morning azured backdrop.

Summarily slamming

winter's door,

having uncoiled

from its handmaiden;

pride before the fall?

Thanks Chimpanzee. It was just intended with the use of a puns and metaphors to indicate the welcome of summer - amongst the other seasons; Summarily/Summer, uncoiling/spring and fall...well, fall/autumn. I'll just be happy, if we actually get a summer, this year ;) Chris ;)
