A Poem a Day (15): Spirit of green

Five-minute inspiration...

Spirit of green

We walk beneath the boughs
Treading a path of silken green
It meanders to and fro
As a stream of water flows

I listen to the murmurs
Of the leaves swishing on high
A green and yellow patchwork
That flickers below the skies


Daffodils bob their heads up
Tall in the easy coming breeze
Parcels of light investigate
Where butterflies flock to mate

We walk beyond the boughs
Into the street that opens up
Offering its grey, lifeless concrete 
Upon which our footsteps echo
