Anew Virginia Salter drenched land standing puddles earth in shock from rocking moisture gray skies unseen clouds sputter, splinter onto terra changing season boggles reason winter’s treason breaks toward spring drinking, drinking fast as able tulips, crocus daffodils ancient blades still at attention monuments to seasons past looking out within my shelter pondering the brink of life one edge or other is where I be the end of winter the beginning of spring each year a chance to begin life anew © February 22, 2001 |

Thank you both, I'm happy you read and especially that you commented such nice words. The day is still gray here, but it's different from the winter grays. Several finches were dining at the feeder, too. That put sunshine in my step today. |

Thanks, Poet deVine, yep, I'm even thinking about trying to get a tradition of starting new year's resolutions in the spring time. I never make them anymore because I always falter soon. Plus if I make them out loud than others will know I failed, too. But I'm thinking that when spring is making new leaves that it may be easier to 'turn over a new leaf' what do you think? |

N.C., Coco and Poeminister, I really enjoyed your comments. Yes spring will come. My yellow and purple crocuses are blooming their heads off. The mornings are still glazed in winter's frosting. Yummmmmmmmm! |
