I was going to write a poem about spring but the sunlight came through the window and a bird began to sing. When I looked out the kitchen window I saw those purple flowers cascading over the sides of the hanging pot and impatiens blooming in that sunny spot near the shed. So I wandered outside where I smelled the orange blossoms that were attracting bees and saw the yellow roses near the lemon tree. So I forgot about writing and took my cup of tea outside where I could enjoy the breeze and let spring write the poem.

I love the way you let Spring write itself! Yes indeed, go outside and enjoy the beauty that has been gifted to you by nature. You can always write at night. |

I am so ready for the Spring. Here it is supposedly Spring, and it is pouring down rain, and we are suppose to get some snow on top of that. We are even going to have tornados on top of all that. Oh what horrible weather this is. Thank you for a view of your Spring. |

Ida, This is beautiful. I am glad that your spring has warmth and color. I had my cup of tea by the glass doors today and watched snowflakes dart with the breeze. But, our spring is on the way too. The birds are very vocal and happy. Thank you for letting me look at your yard and share a cup of tea. Alison |

I love your "not a Spring poem" Some times just putting down the pen and picking up a cup of tea, can be poetic all by itself. I thought spring was here, I just got 3 inches of snow in the last 2 hours. Springtime in the Rockies, Gotta luv it. Tracey. |
