ARRIVAL OF SPRING
Like gentle waves that leave the shore
Exposing silvered virgin sand
the seasons change across the land
and spring at last arrives once more
On early morning springtime days
as light through stained church window glass
night leaves its dewy stamp on grass
which glints and glitters in the rays
Life reawakes with natures clock
from fields to woods, from heath to gorse
and fresh clear rivers run their course
and chatter with the stones and rock.

Good write but we have the joy of winter to come first.
I do hope that that is a glass of fine Rioja on the table.
Anything as long as it's red - not a favourite painting of mine - bit too twee!
Good write and pic Michael. I dunno what day - or season - it is. I'm sure it's Easter next week! heehee.
No it's the week after Orchi - thanks for the comment
well penned, Michael Edwards, and it's left me feeling well seasoned too.
Salt and peppered eh? thanks Kevin

Great poem--wish it were spring! Love the rhyme too! And I love the colorful painting of a springtime scene! Delightful!
Thanks Christina and it's still autumn - I'm all discomseasonicated
Can't look forward to Spring just yet ... I'm enjoying Fall too much, my favorite season. Nice tribute to my next favorite season, Michael!
I do appreciate your contined support Louis - thanks so much.
Just came back from a
Spring drenched land.
Unfortunately, not for a
happy occasion!
Nonetheless, I enjoyed
your seasonal poem and
the painting! You are
amazing with your artistic
talents! Here’s to you

You make me feel quite humble - I am so appreciative of your kind words.
I want to keep this in mind to chase away the snow I know that's coming first.
