SPRING IS FICKLE
The colour of bird song is silver
Like morning light clambering over
Huge monuments of lukewarm cloud
In a sky museum unseemingly loud
Yet all the raindrops mauve down
From this ethereal exhibition to drown
Sorrows of earthly disappointment
A greening  mountain  appointment 
Then flowers with butterfly friezes
Send nasal wonderings to sneezes
Should Springtime arrive on time

    What a great take on the prompt, a visual art exhibition in words! Liked mauve as a verb too.

    Loved your poem Gillena. Your silver birdsong caught me from the start... Your images are wonderful in this one. Great job!

    "The colour of bird song is silver" I think that must be so. Lovely

    Gorgeously rendered, Gillena 💝 I love; "Yet all the raindrops mauve down/From this ethereal exhibition to drown/Sorrows of earthly disappointment."

    Beautiful! I can appreciate "Send nasal wonderings to sneezes," as I do have seasonal allergies, haha! Your blog is lovely, thanks for visiting mine last week!
