A New Season

First flower breaks out, through
milky pearl sprinkled snow.
A new dawn. The sky paints blue.
Horizon shows reddish glow.

Weather gets shinier warmer,
Days brighter, nights longer.
The bees buzzing around
Tree blossoms on the mound..
The heavy snow crust thaws
ground looks like jigsaw.

New season arrived now.
Need for a new little clover
Days of cold are over.
Are they really gone, anyhow?
