Snow showers
bury
spring flowers
deep
in icy cold
flakes.
Petals fold
droop,
shiver and shake
to wake
in winter heartbreak.

Note: The daffodils and I believed the last flake had flown, but the snow forecast wasn’t an April Fool’s joke after all. Happy National Poetry Month!

It’s still snowing, even in April. My sister just told me….
But, I somewhat like to see flowers and leaves partly covered with snow…that makes them more beautiful… 🙂

I adore flowers in the snow. Doesn’t happen out here often though. Today we are partly rainy and sunny, but on Thursday dare I say we will be 82 degrees.
