Suddenly
sound travels differently
blackbirdsong counterpoints
playground shouts
the air is gentler -
scarves become annoying
and winter coats are left at home
dead looking wood
buds, unfurling
architecture
of entire new worlds.

The birds seem to be singing especially loudly this year and even my old plum tree is budding. you capture spring perfectly.
Loved the use of 'unfurling'
sweat trickles down my back
Like "scarves become annoying".

Let's toss those scarves and coats!

Ah, spring. Some great images and feelings evoked here. Thank you for this!
Love 'blackbirdsong counterpoints playground shouts'
what a register of spring... how funny that scarves and coats will soon be replaced by sleeveless blouses and sandals... can't wait.. love yr descriptive worlds of sound, air and plants... as a crazy gardener i can hardly wait... watching the buds form on trees and bushes... tho still very cold and snowing...
You capture the essence of the blossoming season. So nice!
That's easy for you to say!
First because I coudn't poet spring (or much else)no matter how I tried, and second because it just won't get here!
New architecture indeed. Nice one.
'scarves become annoying' is a great line. Actually I didn't get mine out this year. I'm never that keen on them, a bit too constricting for me.
Gosh I just love this Juliet - the imagery is superb! Spring is finally here.
Splendidly written.
I love hope ~ and this poem has it in spades!

I love your poetry, but this one is particularly lovely.
I like 'scarves become annoying'!
I love that phrase "unfurling/architecture/of entire new worlds"
That it it exactly, as you wait for the leaves to come and fill in the empty space!
(and I love your comment tag "birds singing")
