Come Crocus
Come Daffodils through the white,
Last years bulbs,
New color,
Spring to the lengthening light,
Come flowers.

Green grasses,
Spread on the meadows and parks,
Green the trees
Color land,
Except the shadows and darks,
Come springtime.

Make these tossed seeds be flowers,
Turn brown to rows of colors.

Thank you, Silver Streak,
Just thought I’d balance out the other poem,
Both of which will probably quickly sink.
I am pleased you liked it.

This sounded as if you were waving a magic stick to summon Spring to start soon - yes please, soon! Loved it.

   Nope...not so gloomy at all.
   I enjoyed this.

Oh this was simply beautiful, just beautiful, and I put this one in my library. So nice to see something bright and cheery
