Spring and love inspire poetry


In Praise of Spring

It's a new day
It's new life
The awakening of love
Songs of peaceful doves
Swirl in the maiden mist
Of Spring's beginning
Singing, ringing, dancing
Romancing each hyacinth spire
Oh the sweet desire
Of nature's birth, our earth sighs
The winter cries for all death is done
And in the warmth of the sun
Butterflies materialize chasing bees
Through the blossoms of tulip trees
Alighting on buttercup faces leaving
Scented traces of euphoria and bliss
A kiss from our creator, the maker,
The potter of our clay, Hallelujah
Let us pray and thank Him for Spring.

Yes!!! I am waiting for that glorious season! I will praise him before it comes, even if we had two more days of surprise winter!

Another wonderful poem. You have done spring justice with these words. You've captured spring perfectly. I'm so ready for it all to happen. I need all the freshness and newness of the rebirthing process so these old bones and get up and get going. I can almost smell the tulips as I read this.

spring has got to be one of the most uplifting seasons of the year... everything just comes back to life... the breeze starts to warm, and the sun's warmth starts to caress our cheeks, and our skin that's been covered up so many months... to feel that sun, the birds, and the blooms, the butterflies, the scents and just the general happy atmosphere that all of nature undergoes during that time... oh i loved this poem... can feel spring coming in the air... it's there, so very near :) *hugs* xx
