Blue the spring sky
and blue the swollen river
empty the benches
awaiting bums to sit
once weather warms
then will come canoes
brave souls swimming
swans in pairs with new signets
herons perching one-legged
in search of elusive fish
and trees of green
packed full of songbirds
celebrating new life

A few of my pictures appear in the Gallery.
But you can search over 2000 here for use in book covers, calendars, greetings cards, jigsaws, advertising, or anything else you fancy in print or online, or as art quality prints to decorate your home or office.

Today, Noelle, you could sit by the river without a coat. Looks like spring has arrived!
