spring serenade


You are
space between words
breath in necklace of blooms
glowing light as sky purples the night

If I (can) trace
your voice
would it be found in morning birdsong
or
hoots by owl under arching willow tree
or 
joyful echoes of wind serenades

    A sweet song of Spring. You had me at /breath in necklace of blooms/. Clever use of trace/ace too.

    Hi, Grace. I am having trouble with blogspot blogs already today, but hoping this goes through.
    LOVE:
    “breath in necklace of blooms”
    and “purples” as verb. Spectacular.

    Space between words grabbed me... I had considered a similar angle, but your well-crafted work has compelled me to start from scratch.

    Your aces were well hidden in your lovely breath of spring!
