Spring's Arrival
Forever I look,
Upon the Spring Horizon,
The Winter does fade.

The rains will soon come,
The flowers will simply bloom,
By the sun's warm glow.

Alas it shall end,
But not before we enjoy,
Its truest beauties.

The Flowers and Trees,
The birds and beasts of all kinds,
Nature's greatest form.



   -- Zenni|Bloodclaw
Stork You
Around the maypole
Jujinka sprays her sparkles
Furlings sprout behind



   -- Cougar
Spring is Beginning
A spring bird is born
Beautiful warm air flowing,
New bloom glows with life.

Humor
Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don't make sense
A blooming flower



   -- Grell|Sutclif
Cosmos
The sun dances high
Light rays kiss dewdrop petals
Cosmos are in bloom.



   -- Yaelth
As the Flowers Bloom
Blooming Flowers Rise,
Up into the midday skies,
Where flower beds lie.

Playful Furres dance 'round,
Earthly Flower bedded ground,
Where flower beds lie.

Beekins shake their heads,
As Bad furres destroy the beds,
Where flower beds lie.

Flowers soon strike back,
With a growth spurt full attack,
As flower beds lie.

Fear spreading through,
The bad furres turn good as new,
As flower beds lie.

"Yay!" the bad furres cried,
As Beekins shower with pride,
As flower beds lie.

Blooming Flowers Rise,
Up into the middy skies,
Where flower beds lie.

   -- Rhym
To Live Again
A seed borne on wind
A warm breeze to usher in
A season of growth.

A blanket of green
Swaddles the seed tenderly,
Love in its embrace.

Mother Earth holds it
Until the time is perfect.
She nurtures it well.

No longer a child
It is set free to the air.
It breathes of the spring.

A beautiful bloom
Opens its golden petals
To give of itself.

   -- Dreamer|Emathyst
Stinky.
The Titum Arum
or the Worlds Largest Blossom
Is very stinky.

A forty year plant
the flower quite pretty but
smells like a carcass.



   -- Cynthia|Nott
Flowers
Starting the motion,
Gaping in awe at the marvel,
So bloom baby, bloom.



   -- Jensen
Tulips Kiss
Winter's clasp melts, pools.
Seeds unspool roots, buds unfurl.
Warm, the sun leans in.

Tulips pucker for
Their first sunkiss. A gentle
Caring love, in spring.



   -- Sneeuw
The song of Spring.
Winter has past us,
Flowers blossom in the sunlight,
Beautiful colors,

Petals dance on the floor happily,
Music is played,
Villagers circle around,

A special ripe peach,
People now know the time is here,
Spring has come along,

For the ripe peach is always near,
Spring sings in our ears,
The song of Spring thrives around,

And as you see and know,
Everything you hear is the sound,
Welcome to the season.

Bloom
Petals spread, welcome!
Wonderful scent spreads quickly.
Flowers say hello!


Dancing with roses,
Spreading the pollen around,
Spring has really come!

   -- Wie
Amongst a Field of Flowers
It was sunny out.
The warm spring air was fragrant
So I took a walk

The birds were singing
The breeze blowing in my face
All was so peaceful

I came to a field
The bees were gently humming
So busy at work

Buzzing to and fro
The flowers coming alive
Swaying in the wind

I lay in the field
The blossoms surrounding me
Not a care in life

Butterflies fluttered
The wildflowers blossomed
Spring had surely come



   -- Zanadria
Sky Flowers
Blooms up in the sky
Pedals swirling up so high
Raining down like snow

I sit in the grass
Pedals raining down at last
A smile breaking loose.

Spring has come so fast
So enjoy it while it lasts
It won't last for long.



   -- Raime
Kitterwings
Flowers open Wide,
Baby kitterwings inside,
Through Naia they fly.



   -- Inque
Spring is a'bloomin'
Spring is a'bloomin'
Life is rejuvenating
And love's in the air

The flowers do bloom
Colors erupt through the snow
As do some new loves

As if the snow melts
It also melts our iced hearts
Giving hope anew



   -- Kaze
The Gift
I am the soil
Rich, ready and fertile
Press your seed in me

I am the first sprout
Desperate to live and grow
Feeding on your care

I am the rosebud
A delightful promise
You are expectant

I am the new rose
A beautiful young blossom
Your gorgeous product

I am spring’s spirit
Everywhere and everything
Feel me on your skin



   -- Aliamani
Remember Nature
Remember Nature
A Haiku by Nijumi
(Please enjoy the poem.)

Dawn sets on the sky,
Willows swaying silently;
A seed is chosen.

Life shimmers with light,
Leading lovers to the lake;
A seed leaves its tree.

The forest flora
Find fair forms to make flourish;
A seed now takes flight.

But how can we all
Appreciate its beauty?
A seed walks the wind.

Life is neglected
By its own living creatures!
A seed now descends.

Only hope has heal'd
The harsh history of hate;
A seed rests grounded.

Respectful recourse
Reveals a path towards light;
A seed now takes root.

On this newfound path
Shall we all find happiness.
The old seed now sprouts.

On this newfound path
Shall we all find lost laughter.
The seed-sprout grows tall.

On this newfound path,
We can make our dreams come true.
Life's new gift now BLOOMS.

   -- Nijûmi
Blooming
Full of fragrances,
Flowers blooming everywhere.
A warm breeze blows by.

Many shades of one,
All together make them all.
Color is the Spring.

Spring Arisen
Blooming Spring Flowers
Blooms happiness for us all
Warming of weather

Light Rainy Showers
Blooming roses and daisies
Beautiful raindrops

Leaves and the petals
The flowers bloom gracefully
Wind blowing the leaves



   -- Séyaru
A flowers kiss
A simple flower
revived from the winter cold
blossoms in the sun

vibrant petals flare
reaching out to the sun beams
flourishing floral

a flowers kiss to you, love
Blossoming brightly



   -- Tucker|Childs
Light
beautiful dancer
sets me out to the cold embrace yet
mocks me with blazing lust

lover alone in
his tunnel vision heartbreak
crying alone tonight

a flower is born
beneath the dark foreboding sky
a fragile light bloom

all of this I speak
holds the light in the world that you seek-
it's in a flower



   -- Storms
Blooming
At last Spring is here,
Watch the petals in full bloom,
Smell their divine scents.



   -- Occlumancy
Mystery Flower
It's peculiar,
That dainty bud, transforming,
To a fine acme.

Changing constantly,
A true authentic being,
Just awe inspiring.



   -- Ol
Welcoming Spring
The earth awakens
shedding its wintry blanket
to allow Spring in.

Asleep through winter
the seeds dream of the Springtime
when they will blossom.

The new green grass grows,
the brids sing their songs once more,
and the flowers bloom.

New flowers blossom,
a bright rainbow of color
to welcome Springtime.

   -- Alanna|Sparrow
Defense
There once was a furre
Protecting a new grown bud
When something hit him

It came from above
From a bird with a long beak
Who wished to eat it

The furre stopped the bird
Saying “You can’t have my rose”
Sending the bird home



   -- Jaredsgo
Meadows
Permeate the bloom
Channel flowing of lillies
Senseless thoughts of spring

Throbbing tulips breath
Fairies disperse memories
Blind your soul with light

Searching visions lure
Forgotten dreams of the past
Love found in the depths

To what shall avail
Where treasures of diamonds shine
Let the trees whisper

Baste the coming winds
Whip over the lavish trudge
Sanctuary near

With sweetened meadows
The rest need be remembered
Of purity's bliss



   -- Missa
Life Blooms
Everlasting Life
Petals slowly soak up light
Life springs everywhere

Color takes over
The world now covered in plants
Warm weather has won

Spring is here to stay
Here until Summer arrives
Winter's grasp is void

Bloom
Foliage abound.
Springtime's natural calling
Brings colours to see.

Sweet fragrance present,
To delight those taking time
To smell the flowers.

Blooming of Lands and Love
As winter wears on
We grow tired of the cold.
Where is Jujinka?

That strange, small vixen
Prime of things green and lovely.
And perhaps love, too.

Please bring to our lands
The warm sun, the soothing rain. Bring to us our spring.

Life begins anew
Flowers follow her footsteps-
Tiny as they are.

And not just the land,
for she's a Prime of love, too.
Hope springs eternal.

Those too shy to speak
or tell their beloved why
Never fear, brave ones.

For it's not just spring.
With divine inspiration,
Love will blossom, too.

Fear not what to say.
Speak your heart, what's in your soul.
Luck is on your side.

No matter what's sought-
life, love, friendship, happiness-
it will come to pass.

So rejoice in spring,
when all will become alive...
when everything blooms.

   -- Mokura|Radikai

Nourishing rains feed my soul

Sprouts surrounding me,
I know waiting gives a gift-
A Springtime surprise.

   -- Mocha|Cream
Furcadia in Bloom
Sleepy Floxen rise,
The spring is calling to you,
Raise your head and BLOOM.

Kitterwings fly by,
Waking plants and butterflies,
Bringing spring to all.

Panooki's sleep late,
Rolling around in their beds,
Messy fur for sure.

Furlings wake slowly,
Rubbing eyes and quiet sighs,
Mothers by their side.

Here come the Naga,
Majestic legless reptiles,
They give very good hugs.

Kirins tag along,
Floating by meditating,
They have strong focus.

See all the Nobles,
Dressed up in satin and silk,
They stroll calm and proud.

Unicorns come too,
Dancing and singing all day,
They feel fancy free.

Fiery birds appear,
We call them the Phoenixes,
They make quite a show!

The Gryffes fly above,
As eagles they soar with ease,
What a wondrous sight!

Cattens and Rabbens,
They jump around in the grass,
Playing hide and seek.

Dragons pick roses,
Showing love is in the air,
And sharing the joy.

Ferians wake too,
Yawning and stretching themselves,
Ready for the spring.

Even the Primes come,
How thrilling to see them here!
Make haste to say hi!

New Furres will arrive,
Keeping hope and spring alive,
Together rejoice!

Everyone attends,
Furres are waking worldwide,
To see the new spring.

All the furres will dance,
To bid winter their goodbye,
Until the next year.

   -- Lyra|Lie
Life of Death
Flurry of lost dreams.
Cherry blossom twirls; dances.
Enchanted by death.



   -- Critter
Buds
From now until Spring
I will watch the sun setting
Over those weak buds.

But soon that will change
As those little baby buds
Will bloom so cutely.

The flowers will stay
For a few seasons, and then
I await new buds.



   -- Kiyi
Floral Aurora
Rise of Apollo
streaks of crimson warm the land
burning chariot.

Crooning chorus
orchestral serenity
avian dawn song.

Unfolding petals
embracing nature's welcome
sweetly swaying dance.

Ocean of flora
mirror of the risen day
Earthen life renewed.

   -- Agent|Polaris
Blooming
Brown grass turns to green
Creatures are stirring awake
Life begins to rise



   -- Shyanne
Reborn
Bloom, my beauty, bloom;
Grow, be a part of today;
Please be there to beam.


When you're all grown up,
my pretty little flower,
Show off your deep hues.


When you expire,
I will make sure you're inside,
Being born once again.

   -- Dimka
The Fae Maypole
The wind blows softly
little dancers elegantly
carry the breeze on wings.

Flit around a tree
Decorating the Maypole
Carrying flowers

Birds chime in to help,
Carrying tendrils of vines
Dropping from above

Falling from above,
Like enchanted jade ribbons
Fae hands tug and pull

Into position
Securing the new Maypole
And then the dancing!

White, Black, Red, and Blue
The fae dance to unheard tunes
Carelessly tireless

Late into the night
The celebration lasts long
Into the morning

As the world wakens
All is silent once again
The enchantment; gone


   -- Win
Doom in Bloom
Beware the tall grass
Hidden deep amongst the green
a chinchilla lurks

If you must explore
Please take care where you wander
You are being watched

If you must go far
Please measure your steps wisely
You are being stalked

If you must look back
Please keep walking, when you do
It's following you

Now, it's moving fast
Catching up to you - run, RUN!
HURRY, BEFORE IT--

   -- Lhumina

Curious
Spring is wonderful
Curious creatures breathing
Are they alive too?

Rabben Spring!

Bounce goes the Rabben,
Hop, Hop, Hop! See his little
tail shake, Bip and Bop!

Flounce goes the Rabben,
Flip Flop Flop! See his little
ears fall, Slip and Shlop!

Munch goes the Rabben,
Munch Munch CRUNCH!! Eats a lot of
yummy food for lunch!

What does he eat? He
eats a lot of things that are
also good for you!

Lettuce carrots peas
asparagus broccoli
parsley celery!!

This is his story
Rabbens love spring! A time for
love and for blooming!

Stand By Our Endowed
Tall in the blue air,
Standing within a season,
in all nature’s glory.

To keep them all up,
Spread far and wide not in range,
Each tree and grass stays as aid.

All in all, this much,
Shall withstand the days to come,
Thus bluebells ring true.

   -- Rake
Rebirth!
Water spouts from sky,
Leaving growth to greet the Earth,
As the old makes new.

   -- Thallis|Desade
Beads of Life
Tiny beads of life,
Descending into darkness,
Far from mother's touch.

Sleeping, growing spark,
Mustering strength for escape,
The return to light.

Stirs in the shadows,
Calling of warmth awakens,
Clawing heavenward.

Broken free from cage,
Radiant beauty displayed,
Basked in reverie.

Soon bursting of life,
The cycle ever turning,
All return to bloom.

His flower is a small bud
As he runs away quickly

Rebirth
The death of winter
Grants rebirth upon the land
Revel for the spring

Trees shake away ice
As their leaves are born again
Revel in the bloom

Depression leaves us
With each flower's opening
Revel in the life

Ballad for a Bloom
Humble beginnings,
Midsomer Murders - Peter.
Pitchfork to the chest.

Noble, fair haired elf.
Discovers feelings for dwarf.
Surfs an elephant.

Now, simple blacksmith.
Gold! Skeletons! ... Johnny Depp.
Gets to snog the girl.

Back for the sequel.
Ew, squidface! Daddy issues?!
Milking that cash cow.

The trilogy's end.
Hundreds of ships! Just two fight?!
Want my money back.

   -- Brigadier
Blossom
The flower's petals,
In the spring rain open,
New beauty has bloomed.

Green
leaves pile in gutter
washed by rainwater, they fall
replaced by new life.

   -- Johnny|T
Flowers Aroused
Roots sunken deep down
Their stems and leaves still very small
Flowers whisper "It's spring"
Drops of dew rest here
As the golden sun warms them
The tiny plant basking
Everyday it grown
It waits for the day it can
Grow larger and bloom

   -- Qween|Elizbeth
Allergies in Bloom
Allergies in bloom.
Spring blossoms bring sleepless nights
and runny nose days.

I suffer through spring-
sight of petals drifting down
makes me dream of snow.

Relief found at last!
Is it serendipity
or medication?

   -- Calib
