Late Blooming

Waiting for late Spring

In lingering damp cold

Constricts the persistence

Welling up an emergent bold

With Winters firm grip—

The prolonged release

As Nature’s fingerlings unfurl

Late Blooming, unleashed!

Spectacular colors awash

As if never been seen before

Spring stunned with the wait

Bursts beauty from her core

Pondering the exquisite delay

What is held deep within you?

Waiting for conditions of day

For a Blooming—all must view!

For beauty of becoming, even late

More gorgeous to human heart

As the beauty arriving on time

Patience; elevation of life’s Art!

Blessed be the beauty of becoming

Whatever the natural timeline

May persistence & patience

Guide your emergence with love
