lilac buds compressed
scent withheld, blossoms bashful
spring has not yet sprung

Written for Day 2, National Poetry Writing Month where the challenge is to write a poem every day in the month of April. Photo taken in the Harvard Arboretum on Lilac Sunday, Mothers’ Day 2020.
I’m sure it will in a few days…it has definitely sprung here!
