On Our Way...



Good Morning and Happy officially-Spring!



To sun-kissed hills
With daffodils
To green mist-mantled trees
To blossom hymns
On bursting limbs
And honey-scented breeze


To pansy-pomp
And tulip romp
To seedling-studded slope
To lilac-lanes
And silk-soft rains
Where wishing turns to hope
 


To golden swaths
And Luna moths
To long lean-shadowed dusk
To unearthed trails
Through back-wood vales
Heady with wild-mint musk


To blue-belled nook
And refilled brook
To velvet-vesper tune
To wicks that hold
Marsh-marigold
Like candlelight at noon


To dew-gemmed dawn
And blue-hemmed Yon
To lark-song before day
To summer’s dock
Spring springs the lock
And we are on our way

    1. Thank-you Poppy! We are enjoying... at least today looks/feels like spring so we won't let the morrow-forecast overshadow it:)

      Aren't you glad each country has its own beauties?!
      Happy Spring across the ocean to you:)
