My fellow-poets and friends Marie Elena and Walt started a new project: Poetic Bloomings and here is my response to their first promt:

They say
you plant the bulbs in autumn
And wait till spring
to see the colour
of the tulips.
The rest is nature, time
and chance.

I find the bulbs lying dormant under the ground so long and then popping forth when the weather warms a bit is just a it of magic. 🙂 Your last line is so true of bulbs and life.
