Analysis of Springtime



Come little sparrows
burst forth and sing,
Today you herald
the beginning of spring,
As you alight
on grass or tree,
You bring pleasure
are lovely to see.
=====
First of September
in the early dew,
How you improve
my point of view,
When you hop
seeking food on lawn,
I can celebrate
this day if born.
=====
“Daily their presence is fascinating and nice to see.
 They come quietly to grace the yard, then
hop and prance about the lawn looking
 for tasty morsels to satisfy their palate,

what gentle creatures they are.”

stan brierly

I have been writing poems for forty years and written about all sorts of things. Somehow I get creating streaks and can write up to 4 or 5 poems at once of varying subjects. I find it is a good way to record events of the day and bring history to life.The mental aspect is a balance against keeping fit,work and life in general. more…
