spring

birdsong perfectly shaped

birdsong perfectly shaped takes flight

clotted clouds cover discoloured skies

winter thoughts are fleeing spring

From shadow

sunshine and rabbits and flowers
your eyes smile
suddenly it’s springtime

I’ll sleep when the clocks change

I’ll sleep when the clocks change
I’ll rest when the spring is here
I’ll feel the heat of the summer’s rage
and wonder where you are

spring streams

March 7, 2018May 21, 2018 / simonsalento / Leave a comment

spring streams down green hills
clouds cross dream horizons
blue skies yes blue skies

When it’s spring again

Hope springs eternal
Buds burst to flower
Spring brings us eternal hope

Edinburgh Springtime

Edinburgh springtime
T-shirts, sandals, sunglasses
Tourists in mufflers

Rhyming hills

Rhyming hills and rills
with frills, spills and crocodills –
Spring can cause those thrills

Friends shyly hold hands

Friends shyly hold hands
like the moon touching the ground
through the trees in Spring

Canonmills, March

Spring snow on blossom
Hunched herons fix swift ripples
The stone bridge remains
