Hi smiley cloud,
Thanks for going back and reading this poem. I appreciate your insights. Yes, spring here is unpredictable. I remember as a child we used to wonder about the Month of May. We had a little jingle we said:
Spring has sprung, the grass has ris'
I wonder what that white stuff is?
Of course it was snow.

We are in Australia and spring is like only a couple of degrees cooler than summer

That sounds wonderful. This week alone the high and low have varied by over 20 degrees Fahrenheit

Eight well chosen words, ten syllables as the writing prompt entry required within unusual Spring hailing natural content as the robin sprout feels unease due to the weather. I did like it!

What a beautiful picture. This sight was always my favorite when I lived in the north country. The word 'frosted' makes me think of a cake. Alliteration with sprouts and Spring.

Hi Shari,
Thank you for the excellent review and detailed comments. And cake makes me think I should make one. I like cake and haven't had any in a while.

This is a very nice post. I love the image which is so appropriate to us here in the midwest where we are still iffy about spring with some snow. "Hail spring" indeed. Marilyn

Hi Marilyn,
The spring is iffy here in the west as well. One day the high is sixty and the next it's in the thirties again. Yesterday we had a few snow flakes mixed in with the spring showers. I guess we will take what we can get.

Agreed. We can't do anything about it.

I enjoyed your tribute to spring and highlighting its sudden entrance. I admired your use of alliteration and the reinforcing artwork. Best wishes in the 2-6-2 contest- Joan

A very well-written 2-6-2 poem about winter that has a hard time to go away, and Cover the new sprouts in white snow to tease Spring before he gives up until next year.

I think this is a good entry for the 2-6-2 writing prompt.
This short piece tells of a spring snow storm.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.
