Spring's Return

A shy sun awakes the flowers first to bloom

until the air's filled with their sweet

and fresh perfume

 

The trees show off again their brightest green

when little buds unfold the tiniest leaves

you've ever seen

 

Birds come back and sing a cheery song

as winter's remains are few8128dcae3a08c8d8089274dbda9b7d70.jpg

and almost gone

 

Though the wind's still a bit nippy

April rains are warm

and you can see it everywhere

spring's returned with all his charm

In its simplicity, this poem conveys the essence of the season. Your piece, like Spring, has great charm. I love the words "shy sun".
