Spring Erupts Poem by Deanna Samuels

Spring has erupted into a glorious season
Slow to start, wary to open
A few days of warmth came rolling by
Gave confidence not to be so shy
Buds burst, quickly, urgently unfurled
From the tightest of curled
Revealed the greenest of green as on a spree
Displaying thickness of dress upon each tree
Intoxicating blooms unfolded at their freshest
Colors vibrant, full of crispness
Ragged grass transformed to soft and lush
To shades of emerald as a velvet plush
Front lawns prepared for summer flora
To give delight at each aurora
Meadows ploughed tidily, ready to sow
Tractors on hand with seed bags in tow
Roadsides abundant with flowers of hue
Soft mauves and yellows, pink, green and blue
Birds have arrived from distant lands
Building nests to rear their young, be on hand
How splendid it is that Spring has now erupted
Bringing freshness anew as nature intended
