The Dogwoods Remember

As the oak leaves grow strong,

the dogwoods remember their beauty

blooming so wonderfully,

while the azaleas ascend

with confidence.

Shades of Green

In the shades of green, in the explosion of color

we can be stunned by the beauty, filled

with the expectation

of a new beginning,

reflecting

on all

that has been made.

Iris

Iris came to visit recently, but she’s very sensitive

and gentle, so try not to stare,

And when she’s dressed

in purple,

she’s a little shy.

Note: These are Iris flowers.

Only for a Moment

In the warmth and softness of the April sky,

clouds gently move sometimes

covering the sun

as shadows descend

covering the cherry trees,

but only for a moment.

I Was Lifted Today

I was lifted today by the opening of the tulips to the sun,

and later the rain,

the beauty

in their vulnerability.

The Encouragement of Color

Inspired by spring and a new sense of hope,

our wordflow becomes stronger,

lifting us and filling our spirits

with the encouragement

of color.

It’s Always Good to Fall in Love

In March it’s ok to let your hair get blown all over the place,

tossed by the wind

and to relish a light spring rain,

and then smile as the sun begins to appear,

gently caressing your cheek,

and it’s always good to fall in love

in March, walking together

as the tulips begin their journey of color.

Yes in March, it’s ok,

in fact it’s very good indeed.
