Hallowell, Maine
Another foot today.
The crocuses lose again.
Seed catalogue open.
Brooklyn, N.Y.
Finally, sunshine.
Big orange Tom moves from window
to window all day.
New Hope, Pa.
Spring branches bare, yet
impossibly green. Peepers
chorus in cattails.
Osprey, Fla.
Red hibiscus bloom.
Snowy egrets flurry their wings
in showy courtship.

I like the way it has snow in the first and fourth stanzas, and color in almost all of them. Nice!

La Honda, California / Mix of misty drip, sun. Redwoods extend tips, hold centuries.

Well, I have lived in Chicago, Southern Michigan and now mid-NC and I understand how each area gives us a unique term called SPRING! Right now I do enjoy my place of residence.
Interesting poem

A lovely spring weather report. I lived with you for the length of a stanza in each of those climes. Thank you,
