BRILLIANT REMINDER
Where once it was so brown and flat
Comes explosion of colour so bright
It is as if a jumbo box of crayons
Was left out, to melt in sunlight.
Endless rows of brilliant tulips
Rising up to meet the sun
Decorating the earth with beauty-
Where, before there was none.
Proud messengers of spring’s return
Their thick green leaves reach out
And not remotely in a whisper
They announce it with a shout.
Placed in the ground in autumn
They wait in the dirt and the dust
Popping up when warmth arrives
To remind everyone to trust.
