Whispers of Spring by BermyBye50
Rondeau Poetry writing prompt entry

*

Whispers of spring dance through the air,
Soft petals bloom beyond compare.
A gentle breeze begins to play,
And chases winter’s chill away,
As nature wakes from slumber’s lair.

*

The sun ascends with golden glare,
Renewing life with tender care.
Its warmth proclaims a brighter day,
Whispers of spring.

*

The robin sings without a care,
While blossoms bloom so sweet and rare.
Each leaf and branch begin to sway,
In time with nature’s grand ballet,
Whispers of spring.
