Tu-lips
Scribble the sky blue
I'll warble the air with colors
Thread wayward wishes
with new spring, skirted with glee
I'll dance in rain, tulips-armed

what a wonderful way to welcome spring! beautiful. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the Tu-lips title... and you seem to have that feeling of spring as well... finally some happy poetry... We need some joy every now again.
ReplyDeleteSkirted with glee and tulips-armed - I like the way you use the verbs here. Full of life and colour!
ReplyDeleteTu-lips puts me in mind of two lips twisted into a smile, as Spring is ratcheting up; a fun little piece.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely exquisite especially adore the images of dancing in the rain tulip armed. Beautifully penned.
ReplyDeleteLots of love,
Sanaa
I love the anticipation...
ReplyDeleteSuch a happy spring poem, Grace. I love your verbs.
ReplyDeleteyou have painted a beautiful landscape. I'm ecstatic about spring.
ReplyDeleteA lot of happiness in your words - truly adorable.
ReplyDeleteSplendid. I can see you dancing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely 'air' for the Spring and to warble the air is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love the energy of this piece. The abandon. A great image!
ReplyDeletetulip-armed...that's so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLovely warm feel of spring about your poem Grace, beautiful..
ReplyDelete'Warble the air' I like a great deal
ReplyDeleteHow delightful. Not a single unnecessary word. Sheer poetry!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the first tulips...then I know spring has once again arrived.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so good! Love the first line, as scribble is a favorite word of mine, and also sky blue as a color. I keep thinking of tulips, and two lips...ready for spring smiles!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a joyful poem...it has a dance within it! Lovely, Grace!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't going to post, just read from quiet background noise...then a kind serendipity from the word "wishes" dropped in...so here I am smiling again..at what you wrote...
ReplyDeleteI especially like how you "warble the air with colors"!
ReplyDeleteSpring is all around and the air is fragrant.
ReplyDeleteThe best way to greet the spring: with my favourite flowers. The line that leaped out to me was: I'll warble the air with colors. Wonderful use of synaesthesia!
ReplyDeleteOurs was warm but is cold today. Almost there. Wonderful words of warmth. As always, thank you! Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou could arm yourself with worse things than tulips! A jaunty little blast of poetics, Grace! Very pleasing.
ReplyDeleteSpring ought to be pleasant. The weather it is hoped can sustain itself!

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely, joyful picture of spring!
ReplyDeleteLovely! Scribble the sky blue made me think of spring but also made me think of the coloring books for adults that are used for meditation. Smiles.
ReplyDelete"I'll warble the air with colors" - sounds like birds singing joy into a bright spring morning. Lovely!
