spring’s got the bothers again,
her bloom
-ers
all up in a tither,
scattered hither-and-yon
with yawn of breeze.
she’s got trees to woo,
things to do,
bees to boo into buzz.
sunshine’s waiting
for her to
blushbudcry;
hex and vex
that startled stolen sky.
The Quadrille’s mine over at dVerse this week. Come play!
This is absolutely gorgeous, De! 😀 So much to love here especially; “her bloom-ers all up in a tither, scattered hither-and-yon with yawn of breeze.”💝💝
Thanks, Sanaa! 🙂
A sweet spring quadrille, De, which makes me glad we bother to write them. I love the play on ‘bloom – ers’!
Thanks so much, Kim. 🙂
You should see me smiling reading this… really love how you portray miss April with her bloomers 🙂
Thanks, B.
This is lovely, De. So much packed into the short form.
Thanks so much, Xan!
Spring is almost as busy as the bees. I love ‘blushbudcry’ – great coinage!
Thank you, Ingrid. 🙂
Love it, love it .. vex and hex the startled stolen sky …. oh yes!
Thanks so much!
“her bloom
-ers” … Love this line break. ❤
Also this as a single word:
“blushbudcry”
Sigh. So gorgeous.
“Hex” and “vex” are definitely on my favorite-words list.
Thank you!
This is a doozy of a quadrille …. Spring is springing for sure!
Thank you, Helen. 🙂
Love every word of this! Very playful and certainly Spring-like!

Love it! the “bloom/ -ers” break and the lovely imagery.

This is so, so delightful! I wanted to pick my favorite part but I couldn’t. Love it.

Springtime wakes up grumpily! Good idea!
Thank you, Susan.
I love, “spring’s got the bothers again”. Fun poem, De!
