When spring comes around
The winter garden readies itself for the sun
Roots stir as from a long dreamless sleep
The ground loosens for the penetration
Heat rising softly from the frozen deep
.
Tulips are anxious to show colors of red and gold
Fixing to dance the tango with the amorous wind
their fragrant peddles, itching to unfurl;
and greedily the bees will feed on their pollen
.
green nipples will harden to leafy trees
and nature will soon show its truest self now;
the one that only the earliest of spring reveals
the one that stays and defines the year some how
.
The more things change the more they stay the same
The cycle of life brings me back to this place again and again
ps. hope you like the song, it always makes me weep when it ends

I love the way you described nature in an erotic way...I noticed you love The Beatles...I didn't like the song...I LOVED the song...Beautifully written...Enjoyed
lol, thanks Rose for saying that, 'perhaps' I do have a 'dirty mind' (a wee pun; I hate puns!) I do indeed love the Beatles, in a hundred years folks will be talking about their music, that kinda sorta makes them immortal, no? hey, nature is erotic by the way...cheers poet
My Brother Poet Christopher,
As Winter ends, Spring approaches
Reincarnation begins
Flowers flutter
Trees traverse
Bees buzz
Nature sings in harmony
As it has done for countless milleniums
The "Cycle of Life" brings music to our ears
And tears to our eyes
Thank you "Sir Elton"
Peace and Love,
Larry xxx
Larry, you always put a smile on my face whenever I see your words on my space....hey, I hope you like the song as well, it's one of my favorites....I love you Larry Ran!!
I love you too, Bro!!!
Spring is in the air, cactuses in my garden are sprouting now replacing the tulips I missed to plant in December ###I like the Beatles as a matter of fact, I have a collection of their albums!! Great spring presentation ## Welcome Spring ## I hate winter!!
I enjoyed reading this
I loved reading your poetry,you write beautifully Christopher.
Pauline, thank you so very much, so nice of you to say that...I don't really enjoy writing poet to be honest, poems come into my mind and I put them to paper, and if I like how it reads I might post it, if not, nada, your sweet comment is motivating, appreciate....cheers poet
typo alert! i don't enjoy writing 'poetry' not 'poet'
hello, Leah.... the day before yesterday, spring was in the air, around my parts anyway, till nasty Mr. Winter decided to ruin all our golfing plans; booooo! Mr Winter....thumbs up for your Beatles collection though....big big big virtual hugs are coming your way for your sweet comment, thank you thank you, have a great day

Hi Chris, lovely lovely lines. Thanks for sharing such a lovely piece. Warm regards. Cheers.
Cleo, you're welcome, thanks for saying that....I don't post a lot these days, so I'm pleased you liked....cheers pal
There is a raunchiness about this write, a temptation of sorts, a so close but yet so far moment for untild pleasures, i love spring except for the hayfever, lol, great write, ive still got the word nipples in my mind, im such a man!
Glen, very cool comment, thanks my friend, I think 'spring' has gotten me down a bit, feeling under the weather, hey, good luck with the hay-fever, that is a drag....yes, 'nipples' are special, lol, have great day
Erotic springtime, The beginning of new sensations in nature and humanity. They go well together!!
Really enjoyed

Spring is such a wonderful time with the promise of summer so welcome.
Great work !
Wishing you the very best my friend ! :)
thank you so much, Richard....you honor me with your words, have great day (or night) out there in England, hugs
:) Take care.
This poem is this so well written
For me the poem is enough
It brings me such joy
To know of your writing ability
If I could have a book
With this poem inside
I would be happy to read it on my dying day
It's so damn good
Yes I like the Beatles
And I like your poem too!
Now I'm thinking about green nipples
That's just me Chris
That's just me
Stay safe -
Jjjjjai :)?
Jai, you're only thinking about 'green nipples' now? I've been obsesses with them for years, lol...you've said some awfully nice things in your comment, and coming from you it means a lot to me, thanks Mr. Masters
Hey there, you glorious poet, you! The ink you've created has surely made me think of all my favorite things about spring in such beautiful detail. Even though I've got a cold like illness going on because of the weather change, I deeply enjoyed this writing and got excited thinking about how wonderful spring is going to be. Definitely looking forward to reading more!
-Monnie
why thank you, Monnie, I appreciate your kindness, hoping you feel better soon, yes, what a glorious time is spring, glad you enjoyed the poem, looking forward....cheers poet
Hi mate,
Tremendous poem, you described the birth of spring in such a great (at the moment borderline erotic) way, that I appreciate very much. I'm pinning this...
Keep up the great work!
P.S. Great song choice too ;)
Dario, thanks for saying that, so glad you liked this, I'll try to 'keep up the great work' although I don't plan on posting any more poems for a while; I'm blown away by the quality of work flowing into this site, such a treat to read....yeah! the song is one of my 'favs' it is impossible to grow tired of the Beatles.....cheers mate, 'keep kickin arse and takin names'
You're right, so many great poems here. A treat indeed...
Have a great day!
I've never thought of nature in that way !
'Green nipples', 'Harden' and 'Penetrate' , as though Mother Nature was once more preparing herself for renewal : but you've made it sexual , given nature human characteristics, rather than clinical and asexual. Very clever and original, keep writing !
thank you Giselle, for saying that, to be honest I try very hard not to repeat myself, yet I naturally gravitate to 'love' and its' benefits, with this one I was having fun mostly, within the sonnet structure....I write poetry whenever they come to me, but I'm very selective in what I post; if one doesn't impress me, I'll keep it private, I won't be posting for a while, I'm having too much fun 'reading' at the moment
Yes reading other people's poetry is as much fun as writing it ! I'm working on a poem at the moment but there are periods where I have to leave it too ! Poetry seems to come out of the blue at the oddest of times, other days, nothing !
'Green nipples,' I love that, buds do look like nipples, great simile :)
A sweet masterpiece Sir Correia
you're way too kind, poetess, hugs
