Seeking Spring
March 13, 2017
On a snowy day, so near to Spring
I did a very gardener thing
I went to where the flowers bloomed
Where air was warm and....ahhh...perfumed
It was a greenhouse that I know
Where shelves and racks of wonders grow
Ranunculus and chartreuse mums,
Campanulas, Cymbidiums
Heath and peachy Hellebore,
Pansies, pansies by the score
I touched them and I breathed them in
Each Primula and Cyclamen
A simple joy this gardener thing
To fill the soul with dreams of Spring
