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

  4. Tu-lips puts me in mind of two lips twisted into a smile, as Spring is ratcheting up; a fun little piece.

  23. The 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!
