Cool and watery the sun rises
*
Is there a change in the air?
Tentative vapour wafts over the field
And reveals green hue floating over damp soil
*
Will aconites and daffodils
Open their eyes to look at a new world?
*
Wish that it be true.
*
Soon the lark will rise
Soon the air turns rich
Soon exploding buds must colour the world
*
Balmy air and rising sap
Inspire lovers to lust
To love
To kiss
And nest

Beautiful!
Thank you, Anna!
Lovely summer poem! I’m an autumn person, but I love flower poetry!
Thanks, Debi! I’m fiddling with a collection of seasonal poetry and have also written an autumn one. Where would we be without flowers?
Lovely imagery in your poem, Hanne. Spring is such a wonderful season after the cold and grey of winter. It’s wonderful to watch the things you describe appearing across the landscape. 😀
Thank you so much, Millie. Your comments make me think that I’ve achieved something of what I had in mind. 🥰
Wonderful images of early morning awaking
and of flowers and the larks rising, you’ve captured them all even the rising sap to inspire lovers.
A wonderful piece of poetry.
Thank you so much for those kind words, Brian! It means a lot to me,
