The first snow fall's elation has long past
The gray dreary days of winter seem to last and last
I miss the warmth of the sun on my skin
And the smell in the air when Spring begins
As I linger in bed this damp and chilly morn
In my mind I pretend that spring has dawned
That the weeks have gone by and Winter has ended
I dream I get up and peer out my window
The grass is so green and lush under my bare feet
While birds are all in a rush to start their next fleet
Of minstrels who will sing away the chill
Rejuvenating my soul and giving my heart a thrill
A kaleidoscope of flowers to titillate my senses
Almost blinding my eyes with their brilliant colors
Filling my nose with their aromatic odors
Perfuming my skin as I bathe in the sunshine
The mild breeze blowing through my hair
Making me feel like I don't have a care
Except to be pleasured by the gifts on this season
The blue soft skies up above me and the sweet smelling earth below
In between I am sandwiched, renewed and all a glow
Winter is beautiful with its white and fluffy blanket of snow
But I am fickle and I love variation
Like all humans I get wearied
I love all four seasons with each one comes a reason
But now it is Spring that I need
Impatient as always and excited indeed
For nature and its miracles is a gift to me!
