Nature’s Rainbow
Yellow, blue, white and pink,
Glittering between shades of green,
Under blue sky,
Yellow sun,
And white clouds;
As Spring explodes in colour.
In the trees, the hedgerows
And verges,
They purvey their scent
To attract and seduce
With UV tracks,
Nectaries,
And lively pallor.
Insects, birds, rabbits
And hares
Go about their business
In this new land of plenty
After months
Of slim pickings.
Opher – 3.5.2020
After the grey days of winter nature explodes into colour as the brown soil and skeletons of trees erupt in buds, leaves and flowers.
It is as if nature is providing its own rainbow.
This is a time of renewal, a time of plenty.
It is a joy to watch.
