Blossoming Tree

Spring Flowers

Mourning Dove in the Sun

Toad

Female Cardinal

Red-winged Blackbird

Last daffodils of the season

Patch of Periwinkle

 

Frocked in lavender finery

and dainty necklace of white,

March winds rustle your many emerald petticoats

as you sit in half shadow

beneath an unadorned maple tree,

dispassionately waiting

for the rest of Spring’s recalcitrant guests to arrive.

Groundhog
