Snowdrops: Poem by David Wood

Snowdrops:

Rating: 5.0


The most welcoming sight to see
On a cold February day
Are flurries of snowdrops blowing free
In the breeze as they gently sway.
This gallant flower breaks through snow;
A harbinger of the coming spring,
Their white petals in the sun glow
The purest white, their glories sing.
The first flower of the New Year,
Tis fitting they are clothed in white;
With tall stems standing bright and clear,
They make a cold winter warm and bright.

Our crocuses are already out as are the daffodils too due to a very mild winter we have had.
