Spring Sunshine

As the spring sunshine glows and casts its beams among and down through the branches and twigs of the copice or the little wood, it lights up the primroses and the violets hiding shyly below, in the undergrowth close by are the daffodils standing tall as sentinals, bathed in the glow and the warmth of the spring sunshine, watching over the little clumps of primroses and violets and many of the other little wild flowers and seedlings that are starting to peer gently from their winter beds, warmed by the spring sunshine thats encouraging them to wake and peak out into a fresh new year, above are many woodland birds merrily chirping and singing as they gather that which will enhance their nests in preparation and anticipation for their new arrivals sometime later in the spring.

A Meandering Stream Through A Woodland

A stream winds its way to a distant sea, singing as it merrily flows through a woodland glen, whose trees are only just cominging into leaf, and in whose branches birds rest and sing their sweet melody before flying off to pick what they can and find to build and beautify their nests for the new arrivals, beneath are primroses and violets that are beginning to flower and many other little woodland flowers are peeking through the soil, and round about are the daffodils and other taller flowers dancing in the gentle breeze warmed by the spring sunshine filtering through the branches and twigs above that are beginning to be clothed for the coming summer, as the stream continues to meander gently through the woodland burbling and singing merrily on its way, one may see a little bird or two darting and splashing in the shallaows, one may even see a dragonfly with its brightly coloured wings flashing in the sunlight filtering through the branches and twigs above as it flits here and there above the little stream and in aong the low hanging branches above hoping to catch a meal that has bravely broken the surface of the water, above the undergrowth near the little stream one may hear the hum of a bumble bee who has appeared from its home somewhere in the undergrowth in search of nectar among the primroses and violets and other little wwoodland flowers and daffodils and perhaps a wild hyacinth or two, and perhaps even a a bluebell or two too that has decided to flower earlier that the bumble has found.

Bright Sunny Days

Bright sunny days                                                                     

Long lazy nights                                                                       

Cool breezes blowing                                                     

Whispering                                                                             

Through the trees                                                                   

Birds singing sweetly                                                               

Rivers and streams                                                                   

Meandering to distance seas.

Sunny Days at the Seaside

Sun splashed rocks                                                                 

Shimmering in the Heat,                                                         

Sea birds whirling overhead,                                                   

Children busy                                                                         

Making sandcastles                                                                   

And Squeeling as they                                                             

Run in and out of the waves                                                 

Breaking                                                                                 

On the warm golden sand                                                       

Under a clear blue sky.

Blue Summer Skies

White fluffy clouds                                                                 

Billowing along                                                                       

In the blue summer sky,                                                           

Bees humming                                                                       

Among pretty flowers,                                                             

Birds singing sweetly                                                               

In the trees above                                                                   

Their branches                                                                       

Gently swaying                                                                       

In the cool summer breeze.

Cool Meandering Streams

Cool streams  meander                                                           

Past tall leafy trees                                                                 

Their leaves trembling                                                   

In the gentle summer breeze.

Spring Flowers and Unfurling Leaves

Leaves unfurling 

In a myriad

Of beautiful shades of green,

Snowdrops and crocusus

Have now gone

Nowhere to be seen,

The daffodils 

Amongst other lovely 

Spring bulbs and flowers

have now arrived 

On the scene 

Some of which 

Are wonderfully scented,

Such as the Hyacinth,

Others not  so,

such as the tulips and irises,

Though prettlily dressed

In many colours and hues

Dancing and nodding 

In the light Spring breesze.

Spring Time

A stream winds its way to distant sea,

Singing

As it merrily flows

Through a woodland

Whose trees 

Are only just coming into Leaf,

And in whose branches 

Rest and sing 

Their sweet melody 

Before flying off

To pick  

What they canand find 

To build and beautify 

Their nests

For the new arrivals.

Beneath are primroses 

And Violets

That are beginning to Flower

And many other little woodland flowers

Are peeking through the soil, 

And round about

Are the Daffodils and other taller flowers 

Dancing in the Gentle Breeze 

Warmed 

By the spring sunshine 

Filtering through 

Through the branches and twigs above

That are begininning  

To be clothed  

For the coming summer.

As the stream continues to meander 

Through the woodland 

Burbling and singing 

merrily on its way,

One may see a bird  or two

Darting splashing in the shallows, 

One may even see a dragonfly 

With its brightly coloured wings 

flashing  in the sunlght

Filtering  

through the branches and twigs above 

As it flits

here and there 

above the little stream, 

And in among the low hanging  branches above,

Hoping to catch a meal 

That has braveley broken the surface of the water, 

Above the undergrowth

near the stream 

One may hear  the hum of a bumble bee

Who has appeared  form its home 

Somewhere in the undergrowth

In search of nectar#

Among  the primroses and wiolets

and other woodland flowers 

And perhpas a hyanth or two,

or even a bluebell or two too

That has decided  to flower ealrier 

That the bumble bee has found.
