Spring IS here!!!!

Spears rising, iris
troops beside my chain-link fence
bright flags unfurling


To be honest, only the crocus is blooming...and they're just two small clumps of observers, tucked under the rose bush's thorny arms. The daffodils' trumpets are just starting to blare (changing from pale green to golden)....and not just iris is invading....rising like the approaching ranks of soldiers drawing steadily nearer....are the daylilies, daffodils, tulips, surprise lillies, japanese and siberian irises too...Spring is here!

Where'd I leave my camera?!?

I love the image of the flowers rising from bulbs "like the approaching ranks of soldiers drawing steadily nearer"!
This is a lovely blog--a great idea. I did a program for our Audubon society about nature journaling and ended it with everyone writing haikus. It was really fun.
