Willow Weeping Over the River Lowman, Devon – Photo – WHB – March 2017
HERALD of SPRING
The spring
holds its breath
as winter recedes
Trusting the sun
to bestow its warmth
yet again
on the waiting world
And now
the first burst
of new life
greening buds
on the bough
As the willow
begins to weep
shedding its
joyful tears
into the
awaiting water
and with bliss
blandishing
its delight
and welcoming
life’s rebirth
