Peeping from the ground

a show under wraps

the bulb emerges

soon to dazzle and snap

 

In a special place

the ground begins to warm

the plants grows high

bees begin to swarm

 

The show begins

there are many buds

each opening with color

sweet nectar is lifeblood

 

Now in full bloom

beauty to behold

many different colors

each one is bold

 

Shining brightly

living a moment in a day

fully expressing itself

before fading away

 

Flowers fade

leaves absorbing the sun

taking in nourishment

till next spring’s run
