Happy World Poetry Day. Honoring the day with an 'Ode to Spring'.
Apple Cherry Blossoms in Spring.
Celebrating all things Poetry.
Resplendent and glorious
natures blooms awaken...ushering us
Into breathtaking newness
Diffidently...bestirring from Winter's frost
tiny buds bashfully emerge from sleep
Timorously, apprehensively and a tiny bit timidly
they sprout lovely pearls of jeweled florets
The sun bursts forth from behind cloudy skies
Blessing Mother nature once more with warmth
Everywhere the world blossoms gloriously
Adorning nature with beauty and splendor
Appreciating with great awe and wonderment
I walk the pathway of floral fragrant bouquets
Drinking in the perfumed redolent aromas
As
The wind whips the pink and white petals
Into such mischievous lively flurries
Bathing the air in wisps of playful snowy hues
I laughingly try to catch them
As they dance upon the air
I am happy in this frivolous moment
As
Time stands still for one incredible heartbeat
When all is well with the world~~~
Knowing that
Spring has arrived!!!

Author's Notes: I rediscovered my 1980's poetry magnets box and in it were two poems I find compelling. I recall having challenged myself to create two poems using the same set of words. These two poem are what spilled out. Which one resonates more with you, version A or B? Leave it in Comments. I'd love to know your thoughts!

Beautiful words that make me want to go out and plant some new flowers in my front yard. Thank you.
Time to get the fingers dirty working the garden purty.
