The Spring Flowers

Christina8

The daffodils are blooming

The frozen tundra melted overnight,

It seems Spring is here even for just

a moment, I squeal with delight!

 

The lilacs, they aren't blooming yet

My favorite, though it will be late May

From purple ones to white ones

They just don't want to stay

 

A bouquet's not complete without Lily Of The Valley

What a sweet smell they give

Without them a gardens not complete

Their once a year fragrance makes me live

 

The grass is starting to grow

The emerald stuff is a pain in the ass!

We all have to mow it and maintain

It's not here that long but I still dislike grass!

          Spring is in full bloom here. Pun intended. Glad it's finally arrived you!

            You highlight my favourite blooms too at this time of year and spring comes a bit earlier here - - tiny but oh what a scent lily of valley gives to any bouquet - a lovely time of year Chritina and may the weather warm up for you soon.

            • Christina8

              Oh it will get warmer next week! But with us its a tug of war back and forth from warm to cold, but the 10 day forecast seems pretty steady so we'll see. Thanks for your lovely comments they are much appreciated!

                    Oh you lucky devil!!! Well it gets very cold here and we get lake effect snow from lake michigan, also have to deal with the cold until it starts to warm up again. Spring will be here next week with much warmer temps and we too will have to cut the grass.

                    "The emerald stuff is a pain in the ass!" Literally golden words right here. Hehe. No but seriously what an enticing poem. Spring is HERE, and I can't wait to live in the natural paradise. Still though, mowing is kind of a pain!

                    • Christina8

                      Well, its a pain that my son has to live with....he's in charge of mowing the lawn but we've had people say it looks professionally done. Anyway, thanks for stopping by and commenting on my humble little poem! Appreciated!

                    • Accidental Poet

                      Me, I'll take the grass any day over the white stuff. Great write Christina. 😎

                      • Christina8

                        Oh agreed!! Anyday!! Thanks for the fave and the kind review, AP!

                        Freshly cut grass enliven the senses of the heart, though I totally agree as a chore it’s a bore.

                        • Christina8
