Spring

The first day of equal measure
dawdled as it stormed
the musky smell of life upon the air,
the presence of our burning pleasure
warmed as buds were formed
and mother birds were building nests with care.

I was drawn to part the curtain
and watch the raindrops fall
that bring the blooms alluring to the bee,
it all seems so uncertain
but the hardest thing of all
is nurturing new growth inside of me.

Wonderful Bob...

I loved these two lines the most:

"and mother birds were building nests with care"

"is nurturing new growth inside of me"

Hey Bob,

Very nice... Fall recycled. Our own personal growth is the only one we have control over it seems so we may as well focus on those things we can change. ;) Thanks for stopping by.
