green of spring

poem for spring

Dark nights shorten and daylight long
And the maiden of spring dances into our song

Chickens hatch and snowdrops bloom
And the mother of all grows in belly and moon

Dancing winds shift the winter ways.
Delight and wonder in the colourful maze.

Songbirds chatter and speak of the light
And Jack Frosts chill still felt in the night

Free from the darkness the autumn brings
Lightness beckons here comes the Spring

The small creatures awaken to the brighter days
now bring on the beauty of the summer haze.
