whose voice is this
that i hear
across the woods
beyond the tall trees
tall green and magnanimous
a melodius lilt
floating in the air
that makes the cuckoo stare
bewildered
and amazed
when the light filtered in
peeping through the large broad leaves
for the flowers to receive love
and spread their hues
the magenta pink violet and blue
along with the yellow
and orange of the happy pollen
to colour the earth a little brighter
and vibrant
enlightening the mind
invigorating with fresh energies
the one who's driving everyone crazy
beautiful as a daisy
making all break into a broad smile
lending peace and calm
to the troubled mind of the autumn
when merging into fall
who patiently waits
at the colourful doorstep
while i wait
to open the gates ajar
welcoming in
love's sweet fragrances from afar
splashing across a trail of colours
streaming in with the crisp air
dancing with the tulips
dahlias and daffodils
just when the cuckoo sings
lush and so full of warmth
steps in
the sun-drenched
sweet-smelling
ever cheerful
the romantic spring
