She said, “Choose the colors of spring and you find the peace you seek,
carrying the love we all need, within your heart.”
And I have never tired of her words,
or of visiting quietly,
in the light of heaven.

A softer breath with a quiet step, as I move through the morning forest,
the brutality of winter removed
I now listen
to the new life born,
the rebirth of the earth
recovering.

Raindrops tumble through layers of new leaves,
as birdsong from hidden branches,
makes it’s way ascending,
as if the heavens needed a few more hymns
to celebrate
the new life of spring.

In the dawn over the lake, crows break the silence with their morning gossip,
as the steel grey slowly releases
the blue,
and the green of the shoreline.
I take another breath,
copying the dawn releasing
the worries of this world.
Spring bringing freedom.

Light filters through the silence of tree branches,
shimmering on new leaves
as peace speaks,
to my heart
and mind.

Take my hand My Love, and walk with me,
where we can discover
being alive again,
among the green leaves
and vibrant colors.
Breathe My Love,
just breathe.

Today an Iris instead of a virus, the beauty of nature bringing healing to our hearts and minds.
And the only thing better than an Iris, is more than one.

Note: I find my work being alot more simple lately. Maybe sometimes poetry is too complicated.
In these times, every heart needs the calm
and beauty of spring,
the rebirth, building our peace
to shape a stronger,
and sustainable hope.
May you be restored each day. Stay healthy!

Within the brutality of shadows and empty streets
spring speaks, becoming our balm,
encouraging us
lifting us,
and reminding us
of who we truly are,
that we are one of many
beautiful faces,
in the sun.

The power of spring can take us beyond our shadows,
even destroy our fears,
when we surrender
to her beauty and embrace
all that she is.
