Bluebonnet
Grass Blade emerges
From dark places between stones
Pebble is patient and protective
Within the shades of budding branches.
Green Shoot rises into in a breeze
Reaching up to touch something higher
Where other seeds drift by
And Cardinal chirps for her partner.
Thin Stem now swells in the sun
Her gift is just beneath her folds now
Anticipation of a wonderful birth
And of something new.
Then the patient stones are rewarded
In one brilliant morning moment
Bluebonnet has arrived with grace
And with a message of Spring.
Welcome Spring
--Owl
