The Call of Spring – A Poem

I hear a whisper on the morrow

it goes like this:

Spring is near!

Spring is near!

I see blossoms, opaque like falling tears

On the trees!

On the trees!

I hear birdsong high in the light, bright

morning sky

chirp a chorus

Spring is near!

Spring is near!

Lemon daffodils nudge through cold earth

and salute to the heavens!

A mild breeze stirs abound,

the pitter patter of spring

moves around,

winter departs, slowly –

the call of spring beckons, softly!

*********

Author’s note:

I live in a ordinary tree-lined street in north London, England. Every year near springtime the blossoms on the trees are beautiful for a short while, before they fall.

Thanks for reading

Until next time
