Trying Times

A dark-eyed junco in a tree looks at me. 
Hyacinths gently open

in a world that seems broken. 
The patio peach requests 

that you have a seat, and the tulip buds
are still hiding in the folds of green 

hoping better days will be seen. 
I dislike immensely rhymed verse

(actually, intensely), but in light 
of the circumstances, I hope, perchance, 

my descriptions might entrance your wandering
minds and enhance the beauty you may find

in your own backyard in these trying times.
