Blooming bulb
viable in the late winter
opening to show its beauty
vibrant color with splendor
Against the odds
it puts on a show
deep purple leaves
a small yellow spot to glow
My soul is lifted
at this spectacular site
a promise of days to come
a spiritual delight
Other blooms come
to join the renewal of life
a brief moment in time
relief from winter’s strife
Speaking a gentle story
of a small universe within
a moment of pure joy
before the cold wins
A small bird lands
encouraged by the promise of spring
searching for food
around each petals ring
Meditation ends
the new day has begun
a joyful moment of beauty
another anthem sung
