Shhhhhhh.... the ground is sleeping
Pulling up its cover of snow
The squirrels are creeping
The birds are silent
They do not sing
While the garden snoozes
Yet again
Loses its hope of Spring
Retreats under blankets
Winter's last prank
Good for lovers
But a tired game
A little lame
No laughter
Till Spring can prove itself
The Master

Thanks LORNA ~ Brightened my Morning ! Love carpenters and adore BUNNIES (great picture) Its the first (official) SPRAY of DING ~ Spring hugs BRIAN @@@ Please check my Coastal poem ~ Thanks B.
That's a funny bunny squirrel! Thanks Brian......... will check out your poem - was out yesterday!
Perfectly presented and expressed this lament over the lateness of Spring - love the number you chose too.
Thanks Fay - the Carpenters are always fun!
Ah - sun shining here and about to get on the motorway to see a show.
Also quite warm - just a jacket !! No I'm not gloating - great write Lorna
You are gloating you terror......... but I'm glad you're warm.
We went to see Crazy For You but as soon as we set out it clouded over - luckily no rain.
A fine write Lorna. Yes, hope Spring is soon for you. I saw a water vole thingy along a river.
Oh Oh Oh Orchidee........ only in England could they have a lovely name for some kind of rat! Vole thingy....... Wind in the Willows........ oh how I wish I was there..........
That hush will soon awake into the glory of Spring.
I believe you......... I think we've turned the corner!
Yes, Spring is running a little behind schedule. But I'm certain it's well on its way. Love your poem, the Carpenters and the Squirrel.
It was a wonderful "only 3" storm AP! A lot of fuss over nothing - but I guess other areas really got it........
Yes, hope others got through it alright.
Yes, Lorna...
Spring is on its way!
It’s waking up time!
Enough sleep!
Love the pic and
your choice of music!
~Laura~
I jumped right up and shoveled snow since it wasn't enough for the snowplow to come......... sore today!!! ha ha........
A warm bath with epsom salt is in order!
