It's Spring!

Spring arrives
and all the world is green,
each green is a green
unlike any other.
Announcing a new season
from the neon
of new little fists
held tightly on sleeping tree branches
fingers eager to unfurl;
to the dark green of tall saguaros,
and deep, dusky green of eucalyptus
each green unique as a fingerprint,
gathering into itself
the joy and sunshine
of celebrating Spring.


     Happy first day of spring.  I hope there isn't any snow where you are.  Your poetry challenge for today is to write your own spring poem.  What do you like to do during spring?  Fly a kite? Watch frogs?  What is your favorite thing about spring?  If Spring had advice for you, what would it be?  Have fun writing.
