Day 25  NaPoWriMo Challenge

Today we are challenged to write a poem that is specific to a season, uses imagery that relates to all the senses (sight, sound, taste, touch and smell) Also to include a rhetorical question.

Spring.

Spring is the season Mother Nature awakes
after slumbering through the cold winter
watching the first buds of life erupt 
now Jack Frost has withdrawn his grasp

chirping dawn chorus to wake us up
crisp mornings felt beneath clear skies
a forest of bright bluebells cover the ground
pink blossom fills the air with powerful scent

what tastes would spring enjoy?
red stemmed rhubarb ready for pulling
crunchy salads, new potatoes, chocolate eggs
spring lambs, new birth, life returns to the fields

spring is full of sights and sounds all around us
filling our senses with, taste, touch and smells
emotions tingling our very existence
it's a wonderfully vibrant time of the year!
