Sunday Scribblings - A Ballet


<

A thousand dancers adorned with
softest pink reach skyward
on a stage of April green.
The magnolia blossom
performs a ballet to celebrate
the gentle days of spring.

  11. That looks a bit like a 'Susan' magnolia, but mine still only has tiny buds on it. I'll be celebrating when she opens up!

    Nice one. :)

    Spring is definitely a time for celebration.
