Spring

Observing everything around me

Wisps of clouds like fragments of hair with stars shining through.

The stillness of the night, so perfect and serene, admired by the few.

All asleep in cosy beds as an owl calls out to the night.

Oh the wonders of the earth - it’s such a beautiful sight.

 

Dawn breaks through as night turns to day and silence changes to sound.

Cold earth warming, caressing the dew that lies upon the ground.

Snowdrops bending, always encouraging the growth of younger flowers.

Sunshine bursts embracing the sky through the April showers.

 

A new day is born and with it brings a hope that from the start,

the day has tranquillity, love and peace, enough to fill our heart.

This wondrous gift that is showered upon the faces of mankind.

An image to freeze, an image to hold and treasure in your mind.
