SOLS 19 ~ Hello Spring

March Slice of Life Writing Challenge

Earlier today, I was sorting through some bookmarks on my computer. I had flagged a Tuesday Slice of Life Story written by Ruth Ayres. Her post from November 1st, “Hello November” was a poem that Ruth had modeled after Goodnight Moon, a classic children’s book by Margaret Wise Brown. I loved the idea and tucked it away for future inspiration. Ruth is one half of the dynamic duo, also known as The Two Writing Teachers. Both ladies are a frequent source of writing expertise and stimulation for me. Thank you Ruth for sparking my Spring Greeting.

Hello bikes

Hello neighbors

Hello bubbles blowing in the breeze

Hello golfers

And the chirping birds

Hello t-shirts

Hello tulips

Hello hopscotch

And hello earthworms

Hello spring coat

And hello fishing boat

Hello polished toes

And hello sunshine on my nose

Hello budding trees

And hello knees

Hello early flowers

And hello April showers

Sprinkling the soil

Hello baseball

And bugs that crawl

Hello Spring!
