Red Bud Trees in Spring

Appearing naturally in Wooded Byways...

The Art of Red Bud trees is scattered among the Forest Glen 

where newly born Foxes are adorned with auburn shades of Red... 

The tenderness of the Moss below the trees is embedded in the 

beauty of Spring where new life is bursting with 

songs of feathered friends heard throughout the Glen 

where young spotted Fawns lie in the green moss... 

We pause to pray for healing where Nature smiles...

[M.E.Lyle]

I love your opening line. Who would have ever thought it?
I love spring too. My backyard always looks it's best this time of year. It makes one want to sit back and daydream all day long, as a cool springtime breeze blows past your cheek.
Have a wonderful day.
What a day for a daydream, is it not?

[Patricia Wedel]

dear M.E. A day without dreaming is like a day without prayer. Yes, back yards are the first clue that violets are blinking their blue eyes and feeling the breeze through the trees. Enjoy the time to Rejoice. truly, Pat

[Betty Hermelee]

So happy for you! Love your poems!!

[Betty Hermelee]

Nature gives us reason to smile…. And your imagery shows the magnificence of the Glen where birdsong abounds and new life begins….
You’re a pro Pat…. This is so mellow and stunning…. Yours, B.

Such a masterpiece of colour thoughts swept across the screen, Pat! Your life is so full of glorious colour and I that is so very precious these days. Tis a multitude of green budding time, plua,. can't help it but call this time of year the Yellow Set. Why? Because the outdoors is a theatre of primroses, daffodils, forsythia. etc.. it's as if the world was smiling! Take care, dear lady, distant hugs to you both.. xx

Spring is the queen of all seasons and feeling tender and romantic is a part of it... But you painted it like a dream. You really are a true nature lover... I can even feel nature with your poems...

[Sami Khalil]

Capturing the beauty of spring is a talent. Celebrating it is a gratitude. Enjoying it is a luxury. Kudos. Happy Spring...

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Sami... Spring has captured our lust for flowers in bloom and soft rain as we venture forth in the sunlit hours where soon .. Butterflies will sip nectar and toast the season of rebirth and healing. The beauty has given us hope and courage to care for the downtrodden who have succumb to the
malady. Thank you for your generous review. Enjoy the Broadway Show of Sleeping Beauties as they awaken in bright
Petals of Love and Restoration. tenderly, Pat

[Sami Khalil]

Wow! So poetic. You are welcome Pat.

[Cherrie]

Spring time is magic from first bloom budded to the last bloom falls. It takes my breath every year, just like your rendition of it.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Cherry... it seems that Spring has arrived in the midst of “masks” and being sequestered. However, Spring is still bursting out all over to heal the emotions of children from two to ninety-two. Our breathing is relaxed when tulips appear as March winds whisper... “be still and heal”...
lovely to see your heart prints ... tenderly, Pat

[Cyprian Van Dyke]

I don't think I ever read a poem about a tree that I didn't like. This poem was short but better than most I remember, including my own. Wonderfully penned. tyfs

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Cyprian... your review is a breath of kindness... have you read the poem about Trees that was written by Joyce Kilmer... years ago.. it is so beautiful... you could look for the poem on Google. Hope you are safe and well. Gently, Pat

[Cdice Gamble]

The opening line reads as if a rose unveils it's petals. I love the newly born Foxes reference and the combination of green spring energy and the symbolism in the power of red, passion, regrowth. Such beautiful imagery. I feel as if I am in the Forest Glen, listening, healing. Thank you, Pat!

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Cdice... life can be mellow if we let
Nature become our Sanctuary where Angel Wings give us a Canopy of shade when life is changing and the hot topics become treacherously intimidating ... we sit under ancient Beach trees and ponder the wisdom of Sages. truly, Pat

[Cdice Gamble]

Aw, such natural calm in your words, and poetry even in your comment and thoughts. I'm grateful, also for the reminder to let the angels hold us in the storm.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Cdice... love being in the presence of a Kindred Spirit... it is a time in our World where we will come together and pray to the Great Spirit... tenderly, Pat

[Cdice Gamble]

To the great spirit with many sprinkles of love as walnuts on a carrot cupcake.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Cdice... I also love Orange Cranberry Muffins with Coffee... with sprinkles of love. gently, Pat

[Betty Hermelee]

Another splendid nature outing; with the colors of spring aptly displayed; and the newborn chicks, and baby fawns enjoying this Glenn, smother themselves in soft grass and moss.Nature takes care of us, but in many different ways. Pat, you really have a knack for your imagery and soft words.
Best, Betty

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Betty... I inherited my love of Nature from my Mother.... Sprung is sweeter each year... be visiting you soon. tenderly, Pat

[Chris Shaw]

I am loving that posted image of togetherness in front of a roaring fire. That is stupendous. I love the warmth which I can feel from the pair of you and the flames on this side of the pond. Your poem is pretty special too. All the greens, reds and auburns. Birdies, foxes and fawns. Spring is such a glorious time of year, the start of so much promise. Let us hope that this year, things will be better than last. You know when I was a little one, I loved that Disney film Bambi, and this poem took me back there. I was in the glen with my very own Bambi, with his liquid brown eyes. Take good care dear Pat of you and yours. Love from across the pond.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Chris... before the Pandemic... we loved to have dinner at Cracker Barrel in front of a warm Fireplace... I often asked the Waitress to snap our picture. Now, we are afraid to eat out ... however, some day we will Mingle. I love the Red Fix and the adorable Fawns... yes, Bambi is embedded in our hearts. Spring is beginning to burst and the Birds will be building Nests. Wishing you the Best... always, Love from across the Pond 💕 Pat

[Patricia Wedel]

The Red Fox are emerging from their secret Caves to chase the Hunters before they know it is Spring. o.s. My spell checker was napping. Pat

[Chris Shaw]

I hope that before too long you will be able to return again to Cracker Barel for dinner. It sounds a wonderful place. Always keep that hope in your mind dear Pat.
