Spring Shoots

Spring Shoots

Spring Shoots

Spring Shoots

.

Bare brown branches with hardly a hint of green,

The smallest tint of jade seen in the shade

As the shadows lengthen and colours dissipate.

Darkness shrouds the trees and birds slowly cease

Their twitters. Only a lone owl can be heard

Breaking the soft silence with his call. Peace.

I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx

      At the time of the Spring equinox (Southern Hemisphere) and the Autumnal equinox (Northern Hemisphere) I have noticed that many of the temperatures are much the same. I always compare London with Jozi. I have no idea about the US as it is such a vast area.
