Sprung?


In the last 4 days I’ve seen a butterfly, some crocuses and a bumblebee. I’ve had a barbecue, I’ve walked outside with just a T-shirt on and I’ve driven in for an early shift in daylight. I love it! I love it, I love it, I love it! I’m so inspired by the onset of Spring that I’ve spent most of today writing haiku about it:

No buds on trees yet
But it cannot be denied
Spring is (almost) here

The sound of Great Tits
The sight of blooming snowdrops
Filling me with joy

Dear God… May I ask:
Why can’t it be Spring all year?
Life would be so good

Spring is a painter
Spreading dynamic colours
On Nature’s canvas

Watching blackbirds feed
Enjoying the crisp, bright air
Spring is Heaven-sent
