Tree Tuesday - Spring Poem
My contribution post to #treetuesday challenge by @old-guy-photos brings a sweet spring poem that I came across recently, along with a few shots I took in a park in Clifton, New Jersey.
Spring
By Martin Taylor
One of four siblings,
the youngest of course.
Or am I the oldest?
Not really sure.
I bring new life
and herald the warmth,
but hay fever, too,
is in my source.
Autumn has color
but tinged with decay.
Some call her Fall.
I think she's OK.
Not like my bother,
cold in his breath.
Winter his name,
in darkness brings death.
Summer's the one
that gets all the glory,
but brush fires and sunburn
are in her story.
So, season of choice,
who will win?
The one with potential,
of course; it's Spring.
