Warmth of early spring

Rekindles past imprudence

The joys of our youth

A Warm Profit – A Tanka

What happened to spring

Window panes covered in frost

Melt in summer’s heat

Global warming is a myth

When profit is your motive

Sun filled days await

As spring arrives in birds song

Dew replaces frost

Welcome Spring

Welcome sight the breath of spring,

Air so clear, air so clean,

Though we claim the cloudless sky,

It floats away regardless how we try.

From Heaven above to earth below,

We only see what Mother Nature will show.

She plays on emotion- the sun so warm and bright,

Sinks below horizon- we hold with all our might.

To no avail we say goodbye to the day,

Not to have it any other way,

Tomorrow will come and a new day will dawn,

Today is here and yesterday is gone,

Sun comes up as it always has done,

The birds will awake and greet us with song,

Renewal of soul does their singing bring,

As we welcome in a breath of spring.

Warmth melts winters snow

Cascading down mountainsides

To fill crystal pools

Winter doldrums live

As we watch through our windows

Awaiting first buds

Approach of Fall – Haiku

By D. R. DiFrancesco

**********************************

In forests once green

Shades of red and gold command

Ushering in fall.

**********************************

Frost, crystalline cold

Blankets flower’s tender leaves

Goodbye until spring.

**********************************

Cool air fills the lungs

Cleansing the body and soul

Giving us new life.
