On a Warm April Day

Inspiring Nature when plants grow!

Seedlings cock a snook at snow,

And winds and raindrops shy away

As Spring takes centre stage today!

 

Twee daisies freckle well-trimmed lawn

Dandelions by hedgerows spawn

Bluebell and periwinkle greet

In mini clusters nearby street.

 

Roadworks disturb the status quo

Gravel piles up, puddles flow

But tiny leaves unfurl in sun

And isn’t cherry blossom fun!

 

Although the world news disappoints

Each longer day our hope anoints;

And how this nature bard delights

As sudden warmth my Muse ignites!
