A sprinkling of ice sugar across the moor tops A gentle reminder, that winters fingers still grip Despite the buds, bursting through warming sods Waking greenery deepening, life forging ahead The day slightly longer, than yesterday, Warmth in a higher sun, gaining strength Sky less matt grey, a brighter hue of blue Urgent bird’s darting, dancing movements Marking territory with a sweeter song This the first day of spring

First Day of Spring
A sprinkling of ice sugar across the moor tops A gentle reminder, that winters fingers still grip Despite the buds, bursting through warming sods Waking greenery deepening, life forging ahead The day slightly longer, than yesterday, Warmth in a higher sun, gaining strength Sky less matt grey, a brighter hue of blue Urgent bird’s darting, dancing movements Marking territory with a sweeter song This the first day of spring
Written, after looking at the snow on the distant hills, and contemplating the first daffodil in the garden.
