The funny smell of air in spring Brings a whiff of freshness into my nostrils, The fleeting shadows with the light, With the warm shine of summer sun. As I often wait for morning to begin, As I do for the winter to end As I wait for the flowers to bloom, And as I do for the grass to grow. Instilling a new-found confidence, Often perks up my prudence, And I dance into the air of spring, With a new spring in my steps. |

So we always do Danny, A frosty Winter yields a pleasant spring, When the dogwood, she smiles , gives a ring... thanks for reading, sudhir |

it's like awakening from a restful sleep, the way Spring makes us feel. What a wonderful interpretation, I enjoyed the first line about how Spring smells...so true. I look forward to reading others from you. |

Thanks Shilpi, for reading and posting your response... Looks like spring is fleeting away now, and summer is breaking through.... Regards, sudhir Life is like a painting, That in an art gallery is left hanging, Though many come just to look at it, A very few actually come to enjoy it. |
