A hint of green for M 'lady Vanessa

sonnet

 

 

 

A Hint of Green.

 

Today I saw the first small signs

 of Mother Natures spring designs.

Some tiny leaves of tender green

 against the bare twigs to be seen.

The hedgerows will be clad anew.

Though it will take a week or two.

We will say goodbye to winters reign

and welcome back the spring again.

The sun grows stronger day by day

 and blue replaces skies of grey.

My old bones will appreciate

 the warmth although they’ll have to wait

 A little longer for relief 

I am quite sure it will be brief.
