In the fierce final sighs of winter, blooming pussy willows wave goodbye, as lambent pink-pastel storm clouds race in bondage, seeking new horizons. When the deep-azure evening sky slips into the arms of ebony night, my thoughts embrace the morning star, herald of dawn’s renewal. |

this is most fine! I am especially fond of those: "lambent pink-pastel storm clouds rac(ing) in bondage, seeking new horizons. and that: "...deep-azure evening sky slip(ing) into the arms of ebony night(!)" v. serious and long-sustained applause!! |

Winter's final sigh was more like a roar last night.  lady K, yes, lambent is a luminous word.This morning, though the wind howls intermittently, the sun is shining, the bird feeder is active, and there are signs of SPRING. Happy Spring to all! |

i am late with my reply. but, your wonderfully crafted poem needs a reread for the sake of simple pleasure. " In the fierce final sighs of winter, blooming pussy willows wave goodbye, as lambent pink-pastel storm clouds race in bondage" ah! what a good read! clever talks delay friendship! |
