Sweet
February dancers with hearts of vibrant green
Pointing up
above the snow so eager to be seen
Telling us
of Imbolc the time that comes between
Winter and
spring solstice when Brigid is our queen
Now you nod
your pretty heads though winter winds still blow
Dancing
underneath the trees and putting on a show
Your green
hearts they will tell us the thing we want to know
That Spring
will soon be coming and everything will grow
Sweet
February dancers you shiver in the cold
Reminding us
of Imbolc and goddesses of old
Your hearts
are standing proudly so fragile yet so bold
Green to
speak to us of Spring, we’re thankful to be told.

Such a lovely evocation of snowdrops - so topical
That’s beautiful Anne, have you set it to music?
I must research Imbolc
Not yet
It's actually the 1st of February or very near it as I think some say it is set by a lunar calendar. It is half way between the Winter and Spring Equinox and said to be the turning point towards spring
Snowdrops never fail to inspire! Love them 😊 agree music to this would be lovely 😊
