The Bluebells
Tender blooms in morning light,
Harboring the springtime bright.

Brilliant colors, vibrant throng.
Earthy scents fill the air,
Lifting spirits everywhere.
Lovely, gentle, so serene,
Springtime's purest, tender scene.

Wildflower
Wildflowers, wild and witty,
Wore polka dots, looking pretty.
"Dance with us!" they seemed to plea,
To a bumblebee, quite giddy.
"Bzzz," said bee, "I'll lead the way,"
In a dance, they swayed all day.
Wind joined in, without delay,
Making flowers twirl in a fray.
Sun laughed loud, shining bright,
Moon chuckled softly, later that night.
In nature's party, pure delight,
Wildflowers boogied with all their might.

Silent songs in petals found.
By the meadow’s gentle hand,

Wilderness Woven

Untamed, it breathes and sings.
Randomness in nature dives,
Creating marvelous things.

Paint the earth in vibrant strokes.

Mark the art of chaos pure.
Underneath the open skies,
Wild's allure, forever sure.
