Spring is Nigh Loud thunder rumbles through the hills. The rain flows over country rills. The lightning streaks the roiling sky. Farewell to winter ~ spring is nigh. Spring showers help the plant-life grow. The earth drinks deep from shower flow. Returning geese go winging by. Farewell to winter ~ spring is nigh. Dull browns and grays will soon be green. The rivers, streams are cool and clean. The flowers bloom and grass grows high Farewell to winter ~ spring is nigh. LLD (Earth Angel) ~ * ~ Offering Summmer The roses dip and dance in pink Among the honey bees who drink The nectar from the blossoms sweet ~ as summer offers nature’s treats When breezes gently stir the leaves And robins call from cherry trees The woodpecker will peck a beat ~ as summer offers nature’s treats The thunder showers shower rain And puddles form from spilling drains Small children play with muddy feet ~ as summer offers nature’s treats A time that sunlight spills with heat ~ as summer offers nature’s treats Alison ~ * ~ Fall's Swan Song The leaves have turned a bitter red And woods smell like slow rotting dead With rancid odors in the air. The winter brings fresh views to share. These stripped down branches will be white. The moon will glow with special light. When darkness seems too much to bear, The winter brings fresh views to share. The beaver work in wooded dens And tree limbs fill with grousing hens. Fox sneaking, hunting Snowshoe hare; The winter brings fresh views to share. Alison ~ * ~ Falling Snow December wears a mantle white. The air is crisp this winter’s night. Thru’ amber rays of lamplight glow ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow. Across an opalescent sky, a Great Horned Owl goes winging by. Thru’ cedar bows in brumal blow ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow Tho’ standing high on Beacon Hill, I’m wrapped in warmth ~ no winter chill. Thru’ wooded valley far below ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow. Thru’ winter scenes from long ago ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow. LLD (Earth Angel) This was my only dual poetry effort ~ and I could not have worked with a more lovely, gracious or talented poetic partner. We did this for "extra credit" and fun in the Poetry Workshop - /pip/Forum22/HTML/001025.html I love you, Linda. |

I loved this. The season, as are the days of our lives, was taken on with care and honesty. These are keepers, so I shall keep them. The first I have "kept" since I have joined PiP. A black cat ran in front of me tonight. I'm not worried. they don't bother Warlocks |

On behalf of Linda and myself, I can't think of a more wonderful compliment than to have this be your first "save" in PiP, Legacy. Thank you for reading and enjoying. She's a talented one, our Linda. Welcome to PiP. Alison |

Thank you. Linda is a joy to work with - we had a lot of fun in the Poetry Workshop and this just grew from our mutual joy of writing. She would send her love to all of you - so I will for us both. Love, Alison |

Excellent writing from both of you Alison. It makes me so sad to here about Linda. She is such a special lady. Ida |

Ida, Linda wouldn't want you to be sad. Be hopeful instead. I know you won't take this amiss. Owl |
