Sensuous Springtime

Posted on April 25, 2016 | 28 Comments

 

Ah sensuous springtime

when all the earth comes alive

sights, sounds and scents allure

 

Plump pink buds eager to open

unfurl their soft, tender petals

exposing bright blossoms

releasing a sweet, luscious fragrance

arousing my senses

awakening desire

 

Ah sensuous springtime

when all the earth comes alive

 

and me along with it…

      Thanks so much, Lois! I was just thinking of you and hoping the same. ❤
      I can't say I'm unwell, but I've sure had a lot going on lately that has been affecting me emotionally and is part of the reason I've been so quiet here – it's hard get the creative juices flowing when you're feeling drained. But nature is a beautiful muse and never fails to help get the inspiration going again. 🙂
      Hope to be stopping by your blog soon to catch up and see what's been going on in your world lately. Hope your week is off to a good start! ❤

    Stunning and exquisite and so very beautiful both photos and words. You are quite ahead of us over where you are…just had snow, hail and sleet here and winds from the arctic! freezing…your poem cheered me up. Our buds are still tightly closed…for protection! Thank you for this! 💐

      Thanks so much, Krys, I’m glad this cheered you up from the freezing weather you’ve been having over there. Keep warm my friend, and hang in there – spring is bound to show up there at some point. 🙂

      There really is. I don’t know why but there’s just something fresh and romantic about them. ❤

      Thank you so much! Yes indeed fall and spring are my favorites, whish is funny seeing as they are the complete opposite of each other. Guess I’m just a bit of a contradiction. 😉 But I can’t help it – I love when all of nature awakes in springtime and then when it all prepares to go to sleep in a blaze of glory in autumn. Thank you for your kind words about my poetry, I sincerely appreciate them and I’m so glad you enjoy it! 🙂
