The Gown Of Spring

The Gown Of Spring

A Poem by Adam Latham

The frosted cloak of winter’s chill
Is now retreating over hill,
And through the valley and the town
Enrobed in springtime’s golden gown.


The rolling pasture once unseen
By snow is now a verdant green
With yellow flecks to make you smile
Of primrose blooms and chamomile.


And cottage gardens too delight
With sprightly sparrows taking flight
From overhanging, untrimmed thatch
And nests where eggs await to hatch.


And all around the air’s alive
With scents and insects from their hive,
That perch on flowers not their best
Still drowsy from a well earned res

You really bring spring alive in this poem, not just visually but also with the scented air. Classical style, very much my cup of tea. Good expression.
