Spring


She comes gentle on southern winds
Soothing winter scars on barren bowers
Whispering in the tangled hedgerows
‘Wake my little ones, I am here”

Yellowed trumpet heralds lift their heads
In silent fanfares to the infant dawn
While age worn lips break and smile
In hopeful thoughts of one last summer

"Wake my little ones, I am here"
Welcome to you spring, I am so glad that you are here again!
Thanks for sharing, Cari!

I never think of not making it through the spring, and summer.

"Soothing winter scars on barren bowers"

But I do feel kind of "barren" sometimes in winter...but like the trees, I need to see winter as a time of resting.

enjoyed the poem, John.

My own never-ending dreams come in Spring Cari! They hold on for most of the year and just when I think they're leaving, it's Spring again! You write lovely poetry! I think you should write a book of them!

If I were more than I am, I'd see things differently instead of the same all the time.

Great poem Cari, after winter's grey I look forward to every sunny day.
