Spring

Reading is not for everyone, but these short nature poems can be. Inspired by Wisconsin, the Mohave Desert, Michigan and Zion National Park, these four poems are quick and simple and intended to help readers relax and exercise their imaginations. Escape alone to a quiet place and enjoy. Read slowly, allowing the punctuation to guide your pauses, over and over until you find the rhythm of the rhyme. Reading out loud may be helpful. Then, close your eyes and imagine the places and things that are being described. Actual photos inspiring these poems can be found on the author’s Instagram page and website. Spring is the first volume of the four-volume Seasons series.
