Green Space

 

Don't you love the green space

that early spring brings us?



When the deep purples of hepatica

manifest their soft velvet royalty,

hugging the ground when

the rich soil warms in the woods.



When the vibrant yellows

of Trout Lily brighten

the floor of the forest

arching above bland winter leaves.



When the pure white petals

of Bloodroot unfurl and expand

in warm sunlight, then close

into a cup during overcast.


Don't you love the green space?
