A place where life’s at its pinnacle,
And the dance is free and pure,
As spring remains the world’s allure.
Five Acrostic Poems About Spring
1. SPRINGTIME
Soothing sun begins to shine,
Petals blooming, oh so fine,
Rainbows arch in the clear sky line,
Insects buzzing through the pine,
Nests of birds, a sight divine,
Gardens lush, a sign benign,
Truly spring is a design,
Immaculate, with a touch benign,
Marvelous in every line,
Endearing season, forever mine.

Beneath the trees, they lay so free,
Lilac, pink, a sight to see,
Over the land, as far as the sea,
Soft petals falling, a spring decree,
Silently, they fill us with glee,
Onwards they drift, like a plea,
Mirroring life’s transient spree,
Saying goodbye, till next year, hopefully.

Soft rays that kiss the morning dew,
Under the sky, so clear and blue,
Nurturing earth with a hue anew,

In every corner, in every view,
New life sprouts, a spectacle to pursue,
Eternal cycle, ever so true.

Rivulets forming on the pane,
A symphony playing again,
In the heart of spring, it’s not in vain,
Nourishing life, easing the pain,
Feeding the rivers, the fields of grain,
All is refreshed, in nature’s domain,
Lush and green becomes the lane,
Life, in full bloom, regains its reign.

Fragrant blooms in the garden bed,
Life anew, in hues of red,
Over the earth, their joy is spread,
Welcoming spring, as winter has fled,
Eternal cycle, we are led,
Rapturous beauty, enough said,
Springtime’s gift, lovingly bred.

Five Elegys About Spring
1. Elegy to the Blossoms
The blush of pink that heralds spring, Petals soft as a dove’s wing, Each bloom a promise, life’s sweet ring, To the blossoms, our praises we sing.
Beneath the cherry tree, we rest, In springtime, we are truly blessed, Yet, fleeting is this joyous zest, As blossoms fall, at time’s behest.
By Dan Higgins, 2024
2. Elegy to the Morning Dew
Crystal droplets on the grass, A shimmering, ephemeral mass, Reflecting dawn’s light, a sparkling glass, Their beauty unsurpassed.
Yet, as the sun ascends the sky, These jewels of spring begin to dry, A transient beauty, a silent goodbye, Under the warming sky.
By Dan Higgins, 2024
3. Elegy to the Songbirds
Songbirds flit from branch to branch, In the morning light, they dance, Their melodies put us in a trance, Each note a token of spring’s romance.
But as the day turns into night, The songbirds take their flight, Their absence felt, despite The moon’s gentle, silver light.
By Dan Higgins, 2024
4. Elegy to the Buds
Tender buds on sturdy trees, Sway gently in the springtime breeze, They hold the future, a silent tease, Of summer’s verdant canopies.
But spring is fleeting, buds unfurl, Revealing leaves in a dizzy whirl, Gone is the bud, the promise pearl, In the relentless temporal swirl.
By Dan Higgins, 2024
5. Elegy to the Spring Rain
Spring rain, a soft and gentle sigh, From the heavy, cloud-laden sky, It brings life, yet we bid goodbye, To the sun’s warm, comforting lie.
Raindrops fall, a rhythmic beat, On the rooftops, in the street, Spring’s symphony, bittersweet, An elegy to the heat.
