Sunflowers blush as petals creep Along easels of meadow's keep. Winter's arctic days now long gone, That morn's fair promise trails upon Breezes sweet , once an icy blast, Engrave a kiss on spring at last Cardinal swoons with trilled refrains Upon leaves' edges like beaded grains, For springtime is a godly rite When heaven molds its prized delight! ................. for Brian Strand
