PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

oh fair butterflies and bluebonnets

how they make me long for spring

upon their glorious majestic poise and beauty

why, I could ponder endlessly upon such a simple

thing

the heart softly flutters at the sight of the sun

mooning over the grassy green meadows below

the breeze ruffles the happy trees' dancing branches

and I am taken quite a back by the unfolding natural

show

spring so does remind me of happy days of childhood

and of course my childhood reminds me of a many

spring

I can cast the abundant light and laughter upon

the weather warm drenched days that have passed

to the sound of welcomed wind chimes that hung

over a near by neighbor's back porch swing

oh these nostalgic sights and sounds of the

coming of another beloved summer

do arch the brow of delight

and make the child in me again wonder

will old man winter never find wings to be fit

enough to fly away

come alight upon me

soft sweet feelings of an open armed spring

and bring with you as well

your silly sister summer

along soon to stay..................
