Tears of Jubilation

“Sshhh”-said the whispering pine to the willow,
“Why do you weep those tears on your pillow”?
The willow replied, “These are tears of Jubilation
Spring is coming, time for celebration”.

The brook babbled on to the murmuring stream,
“could this be real or only a dream”?
They were all filled with wonder they’d look if they could
“Tell us what you see”, they asked, The Tall Mighty Redwood.

“Wondrous things from above and below”
his voice was like music, like a beautiful cello.
“In a field of clover, the daises are dancing
While the bees and the flowers start their romancing”.

The rose is blushing, from what the white lily said
“Girl your are lovely in that shade of red”.
“The humming birds hum, sounds like a flute
There is a robin in his red breasted suit”

So much around for everyone to see
I shed these tears Of Jubilation for thee.
Gloom of winter is over as a new season starts.
New life has begun, Let the sun fill your hearts

Oh I really love this. And on this first day of spring, the wind has warmed the sun is shining and I just got up from my knees in my gardening clothes. I can't overdo this first day. Thank you for a lovely poem. Joyce

what a lovely and inspiring tribute to spring Kath...
this is wonderful in its imagery and anticipation...
I love the title ...
this is a cadence kissed spring breeze
beautiful poetry dear poetess.

oh you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath
your words keep me alive
