The Flower

The melting snow and birds that sing
Are signs of winter changing to spring
Blowing clouds of precipitation
Hatches your seed into germination
Penetrating through the rich moist earth
Reveals the beauty of your birth
Reaching for the sky above
Blossoming into colours of love
Sharing your pollen with travelers in flight
They deliver for nectar before the night
Closing your petals with a tired yawn
Sleeping until the warmth of dawn

Nice views, insect.
Enjoyed reading this one.

Except 'pedals' should be 'petals' I guess.

Regards,
Sudhir

 Take each day as it comes,
Consider each day as a flight,
Try hard to succeed and fly,
Surely then you will reach some height.

But if by some chance you don’t,
Remember that tomorrow will always come.
Learn this well and learn this hard
That today’s efforts will pay for tomorrow’s fun.

Netswan…Sharing your pollen with travelers in flight.
                  

Marge Tindal…. Even the smell of spring is very awakening.

Sudhir lyer…Closing your petals with a tired yawn.

Haleyja…. Spring is a wet time of the year.
                  I think your Vibes of the Night Dance made a few people wet too.

Martie…Hatches your seed into germination.

Thank you for all the responses…Sleeping until the warmth of dawn.
