Spring is really starting to shout. That means decorating the garden. My husband gets all the credit and I just add some finishing touches. Furthermore a time of flowers, sunshine, trips to the park and a poem.
Spring Arrives
Spring arrives as earth awakes,
From winter’s hush, her slumber breaks.
Her skin aglow with sparkling light,
The sun bestows a kiss so bright.
A blanket soft of green unfurls,
Embracing earth in gentle swirls.
From hidden seeds that break the ground,
New life and hope begin to sound.
A scent of passion fills the air,
As cherry blossoms bloom with flair.
Their pinks parade, a sweet delight,
A tender show in morning’s light.
The wind hums whispers, soft and clear,
Of baby robins drawing near.
A mother’s song, so pure, so heard
The finest tune, a loving bird.
Marja
Hagley park is a feast at the moment
I found this cute rack on grabone and did something I always wanted to do; To put flowers
on a plate for decoration. The big flower was left from a bouquet I received at work.
Pretty Would love to do this with some roses this summer
What a feast of colour, and a joyful poem. I like your lines about the cherry blossom, 'showing off/ their sweet pink on demand.' Happy spring Marja.
ReplyDeleteyou certainly have a glorious garden! I'm having a hard time thinking "spring" because we're going into fall/winter here...
ReplyDeleteLovely picture of the flowers which were left from a bouquet! Thanks for your spring poem and photos. We are now facing autumn and winter.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely spring, Marja.
Ja voor jou komt de lente nu, mooie tulpen en andere bloemen.
ReplyDeleteSpectacular shots! Even though I have been aware of it for around 50 years now, it is still so very strange to think about you-all down there going into Spring as we are going into Fall. Does our Heavenly Father have an "interesting" sense of humor or what? (LOL?)
ReplyDeleteI'm loving those bright colours, spring and summer are my favourite seasons! Today we had quite a decent amount of sun, so I had to treat myself to a pint of coconut banana incecream. Enjoying summer as long as I can :-)
ReplyDeleteWe have colours of a different hue now as summer gives way to autumn. Marja, as ever your words and images are simply lovely.
