The weather’s holding, allowing trees to hang on to their glory…
Scented May blizzard:
rowan blossoms fill the air,
Blown by blackbird’s song.

*****************************
Profusion of blossom…and scents…
Drunk on blossom scents,
giddy breeze caresses leaves,
staggering gently
(24/05/19)
*****************************
It’s going to be the Year of the Blossoms…
This damp May morning
hangs wisteria blossoms
with diamond droplets.

*****************************
Sunny but still chilly, everything is delayed…
Very late this year,
cuckoo calls through bare woodland.
The pressure is on!

*****************************
These Easterlies are playing havoc with the new growth…
Soft chestnut fingers,
burnt by un-Maylike east winds.
New beech leaves silk-soft.
