The Blossom of Spring

Richard Bailey 1998 (California)

Free verse
In fields of cherry, the blossom of spring
Beauty so humble, such a delicate thing

The wordless whispers of a rivers churn
These endless wonders, we have yet to learn

I gaze upon the grass so brilliant and green
The dew on a blossom, the songbirds ring

A world of wonder, left yet unseen
Forever is the beauty, the nature of spring

About this poem

This poem is my take on the underappreciated value of the natural beauty around us. Nature is beautiful, we should draw inspiration and happiness from it.
