February — a rhyme in eight lines

Appreciating good points of February and looking forward to spring

F is for flowers pushing through, Early days yet, so only a few.

Strictly speaking the bird is on an outbuilding rather than standing the garden. Photo by Patsy the Poet

Berries in the front garden; in the back a bird,

A damp back garden photographed by me.

Rain — which helps plants grow — has occurred.

Nearby stream — photograph by me albeit some months ago

Under the bridge the stream flows clear, Affectionate couples hold Valentine’s dear. Return, although slowly, of the light, Yet in spring will shorten the night.
