The forsythia is out…

Forsythiablaze,
song thrush sings the Song of Songs
from the burning bush.

************************

Under the trees, late but welcome…

Bright constellations
twinkling out in dark places:
wood anemones.

(23/03/18)

************************

Spring delayed, still icy and cold, late blooming if at all, and worse, they say, to come…

Finally blooming,
daffodils gamble on Spring,
Ignoring forecasts.

***********************

Fuaimeanna san tost…

Béicíl chianda,
bainteach le tafann spraiúil.
Éann faoileán.

*****************

Snow…

Indigo shadows
pile up around the edges.
Snow and a full moon.
