Spring

Violet starbursts dotting the forest air
Purple prisoners breaking free from their frames
Wee white wobblers winking and twinkling
Young yellow ladies dancing on strings
Yellow-green moles burrowing out from brown dens
Two-tone magnolias daring nature's nature
Emerald foot soldiers assembling their ranks
Posses of pink blazing like Moses' miracle bush
Fireballs of orange rising like the morning sun
Blue little bandits blinking with light
Wise white-haired prophets whiling the time
Ruby-red raindrops rising with vigor
All meeting
Slender green sentries keeping life's long winter watch.
