Budtime Blossoms

Floral curtains flutter in spring’s fresh breeze

Sleepy green turtle slowly rushes by

Mockingbirds love songs rustles trees fresh leaves

Bumble bees buzz by to try honey pie

 

White fluffy puppies frolic in brown mud

Spotted fawn sneak to eat garden’s sweet corn

In peace jersey cows doze and chew their cud

Mother hens lay their breakfast eggs for morn

 

Fuzzy kittens play hockey with beetles

Restless woodpecker steadily batters

Cool babbling creek feeds thirsty weasels

Diamond snake sun basks, resting his rattlers

 

Nature’s grand commencement of spring has spread

Budtime put blackberry winter to bed

Author's Note

I rarely write sonnets. This is my Hair Of The Dog Tap #2 entry. Please let me know what you think.

I think it's fantastic! The two lines I most loved were:
"Mockingbirds love songs rustles trees fresh leaves
Bumble bees buzz by to try honey pie" I love sonnets, and I loved this!

I tell you what I think! It's plain oh out beautiful! Love the imagery, you painted me a wonderful spring picture!

I'm pretty sure orchids just grew out of my f*****g head and I just s**t baby birds. It was pretty and flowed with season changing ideas. This was a kick to when man was infatuated with the world a la Keats and co, before they said f**k that and joined the revolution.

Nice read, easy on the eyes and kinda make me tired and comfortable afterward
