Blossom Time

Inspired by this beautiful image from jinksy and for In Tandem #4


There was always magic,
when the blossom came.

Confetti strewn petals,
rode on the breeze.

Fluttered in the air,
like snow flakes.

That sweet fragrance,
captivated me. . .

and made each day
a fairytale.

Somehow the world
was changed.

No longer
mundane.

It was intoxicating.
It was transcendant.

There was always magic,
when the blossom came.

Thank you! Blossom was exactly what this picture said to me, too. White petals drifting down like snow...Might have known you'd get the picture.♥ :)

Oh, such relaxing sounds and images. A lovely interpretation of the prompt. I never gave a thought to confetti, but it is so obvious to me now.

Susannah, this is refreshing on a gloomy day, whemn the flowers are hanging their heads.

This piece is meditative and uplifting. It's amazing how our moods coincide with nature.

... I suppose that is true for everyone but allergy sufferers. :) Very nice, sweet poem. Makes me want to go and draw and paint the pretty flowers before fall sets in...
