Amid our human

chaos – blossoming cherries –

Spring’s beautiful boost.

“I’ll take the morning.

You can have the afternoon,”

Winter said to Spring.

Daffodils trumpet

the ultimate triumph of

Spring as snow drifts down.

                                          JDG

That vase of yellow

daffodils lights up my day,

 brings sunrise inside.

                                        JDG

 Lone mourning dove feasts

 beneath foggy blanket – coos

with satisfaction.

                                                     JDG

Skimming the surface

of the barely rippled pond –

shimmering sunlight.
