Spring
The orange canvas of the morning sky
wakes upto the enchanting melodies of a little canary
perched on a tree nearby
calling it’s mate of yore long gone by
the bees and butterflies buzz and twirl on dew kissed petals
like little colourful angels
humming in rhythm, the onset of spring
***
Autumn
The russet leaves rustle
as the evening zephyr blows
each leaf whispers its story
and dances to glory
to the cadence of the breeze
before it falls
on the bosom of the earth
from the gnarled branches
which once held them together
in all kinds of weather
the crinkled sepia frond crackle
as life begins to seize
but only to be born again and again!
***
Rains
Pearls from the heavens
fall on the earth
knocking on each roof
the pitter patter of sparkling drops
dance in mirth
filling the void of hunger and heat
raindrops are a refreshing treat
cleansing the earth of dust and angst
spreading the message of hope and joy
