Hazels add a touch of welcome colour…
Bright green stars shine out,
illuminating hazels,
Pinpoints of colour.

************************************************
Still bad weather, but anemones are appearing…
Heads bowed modestly,
they fill the woods, lifting hearts,
lightening dark days.

************************************************
So beautiful to see the whitethorn opening, a little more each day…
In small, creamy bursts,
along bare blackthorn branches,
Spring puffs like popcorn.

************************************************
Watching tiny wagtails casually nip in and out among huge cars…
Insouciantly,
like cleaner fish in sharks’ mouths,
wagtails dodge traffic.

************************************************
In like a lion, a very wet lion…
Stream chants a flood-song,
Foam-bergs spin slowly in time,
Daffodils head-bang.
