Spring mornings, the sun blushes
The sky fills with her pink shimmer
She is Mother Nature’s beginner
Not only does she signal the start of my day
But also she announces the Earth to awaken
The tips of the branches have undertaken
The soil can no longer hold back the sprouts
However there remains some holdouts
They know Mother Nature changes her mind
In April she is temperamental
Yet this early Spring tease is transcendental
Opportunity stretches
between the ages and beyond
A Centerpiece
An Ambassador
A Student
of life
no restrictions to their encounters
Their heritage fosters memories
A lifetime transforms
us all
This poem was written from a blackout poem. All words were borrowed from a magazine article.
Luck comes in Varieties
To some it’s a winning Ticket
Yet to others, the reward may merely be a smile
Perhaps a simple Bloom
or the entire Bouquet
Windfalls may be measured by
a full plate
a roof
a thick wallet
a satisfied heart
No matter your sum
Count your blessing Victoriously
