Spring Is Here: A Guest Post

In my absence I will be featuring some great guest posters.  Today I’m happy to introduce a gal that I consider a friend and all around spaz much like myself.  :)  You have probably seen me feature her work in various giveaways and I’m so excited to have her guest posting today.

Be sure to check out her blog:  The Robertson Clan

PastedGraphicTiny verdant life

in the early morning mist

tucked away safe, still

from the night

leaves of emerald light.

-

As Ra rears his

brilliant fiery head

silence fades into

a cacophony of sound

what is lost, now is found.

-

Aurora shakes her cloak

of many colors

delicate buds begin the dance

fragile yet, strong as they unfold

a holy wonder to behold.

-

A tiny fawn, unsteady yet

on softly cloven feet

shakes the sleep from his head

and begins to plan this new day

butterflies to chase in play.

-

Yet as we wake

Father Owl goes to sleep

Hello and Goodbye in the same breath

he turns his back with ruffled feathers

a safeguard against fowl weather.

-

Still as stone I sit

as I meditate, a smile on my lips

a silent farewell to mother night

finding joy in each new down

flower petals to wish upon.

-

A tender breeze brushes,

dancing across my skin, and onward

pirouetting through fields of flowers

invoking life like a flame

innocence man cannot tame.

-

There is an unnoticed and quiet sincerity

in the coming of each new dawn

an unbroken promise

to bring new breath, after night

sleeps again, in an endless flight.

-

Life begins anew each day

coming forth on the zephyr-like wind

pure as a child’s laugh

it wipes clean the worries of your heart

when you day begins with the song of a lark.
