Capricious Spring
Capricious spring bright sun chill breeze
daffodils fade in woodlands,yet others thrive,
Trumpet clarion calls beside pond and birch
Dandelions defiant with yellow crowns,
pale blue butterfly seeking nectar before
its flowers fade,as do the daffodils
providing clocks and bitter leaves for salad.
I do not know the pale blue butterfly,
next time I must ask its name ,write it down,
say hello next year should we meet.

Talking to animals is one of nature's greatest gifts, because they listen. This was a lovely morning stroll for me, Kexby. I literally envisioned the imagery.

The earlier daffodils are fading while the dandelion breaks into bloom a worthy successor to the daffodil and often misunderstood, it is a favourite of botanist and one of the most useful of genera..thank you for your comments Ahavati
