close up photo of the flower buds of an apricot tree — Soon-to-be flowers of an apricot tree

Unpopped corn kernel;
rising anticipation—
early spring blossoms.

Shades

Perfect gradients,
masterclass in designing
stop—watch the flowers.

Stretch

Stretching its tired limbs,
waking up to face the world,
spring emerges, thawed.

Wattle

Photo of a wall of wattle flowers.

Vibrant yellow wall,
puts smiles on many faces;
sneezes on others.

Bursting

At first sight of warmth,
wattle pops in full colour—
bursting into song.
