3 Poems for the Season

Winter Iris

Winter snow is falling down
Covering the earth in a blanket clean
I dream of sunshine on my face
The beauty of the garden, so serene

Dawn's brilliant colors fill the sky
Dew drops glisten in its rays
Birds in song, the sweet smell of spring
The valley full of morning haze

Amidst the tulips and daffodils
And tiny white daisies tangling wild
My purple lovelies greet the day
With the innocence of a child

Standing tall with majesty
And colors of the deepest hue
Grace is added to the garden
Creating a perfect view

The winter snow is still gently falling
But I have warmth within my heart
For soon the buds will break the ground
And reveal a lovely work of art.

Winter's cold,
the year grows old.
Trees are bare,
no flowers fair do bloom.

The day it's dark
and night fires spark.
The stream is frozen.
Winter's chosen, cold and bitter.


Awaiting Spring
-Unknown
Soon the flowers will begin to bloom
Filling the air with the sweetness of their perfume
The snow will begin to thaw for springs arrival bright
The beauty of the days of the soft and warm sunlight
The blossoms on the tree will begin to gently grow
Flowers dancing upon the breeze that begins to softly blow

The beautiful sights and sounds that the spring will bring
The songbirds pretty song that he begins to sing
Upon soft wings soaring high above to his nest under skies so blue
Warmer days as the springtime begins anew
Wildlife emerging from their dens after the long winter time

Butterflies fluttering upon beautiful wings of spring
Upon the window ledges and branches the birds begin to gracefully sing
The wam sound of childrens laughter as they enjoy a springtime day
In springtime there is so much beauty in nature to see along the way
The gentleness of the beauty of the birds soaring gracefully in the breeze
The beauty of the springtime flourishing as the beauty unfolds
