Springtime Delights

A blossoming redbud tree against a bright blue sky

Opening the windows on a warm day
And watching the curtains flutter
With each breath of fresh air
As your house slowly revives

Listening to the early-morning birds
As they chit and chatter with the dawn,
Announcing a new wave of life
After winter’s dark sleep

Watching as redbud trees and daffodils
Lead a parade of ever-changing colors,
Covering the earth in a tapestry
That shows off Mother Nature’s creativity

Enjoying spontaneous picnics
Under a warm sun and clear-blue skies,
Where the trees sing with the breeze,
And life is, for a moment, perfect.

Feeling the rumble of a thunderstorm
As it shakes the sky and announces
A cleansing rain that will nourish the land
And wash the last remnants of winter away.

Erynn Crittenden

Erynn Crittenden has written poetry since she could hold a pen. This love prompted her to earn a BA in Creative Writing, where she learned how to experiment with syllables and styles. Since then, Erynn has self-published three poetry collections (By the Bones, Transfiguration, and Into the Western Sky) through Amazon. She also writes and publishes plenty of individual poems on her website, and her work has appeared in the Talon Literary Magazine, the Beautiful Poetry anthology by Silent Sparks Press, the #AmWriting anthology by the Wayne Foundation, and Life Blood: A Collection of Vampire Tales by Gary Hill. Erynn is also the creator and host of the Present Poetry Podcast, where she reads and celebrates a different poet every week.
