Song of spring time to sing i yearn to trample thru pristine green pawns of lawns all manicured i applaud as they pop dandelions dots weeds come screaming thru the rocks graffiti on the subway door next stop, brooklyn hoyt and schermerhorn, where homeless sleep the late march dawn silent shadows cropping up reminders, blinders cannot stop unpretty truths come gritty and grey heads in the sand but injustice still weighs look at me shouting old vain and insane my soul breathes a godddess but truth comes with rain in threats to strip this long bleached mane and fears to die ordinary, normal and plain |

Excellent write Michele. Somehow I picture you as an ageless goddess. Always running barefoot through the grass. ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~Before befriending butterflies |

No need to fear. Your poetry gets better and better. And as for the mane, there's a "solution" for that... Take care, Sadie |

Oh sweet goddess, your fears are understandable, but only for 5 minutes! At the very most, that's all the time it should take for you to look inside and remember where the real beauty lies and always will. And don't forget your beautiful mind, too, that writes all this imaginative poetry! This write is very clever, I like the double meanings throughout. ~K~ |

There is nothing ordinary about you, you are unique and beautiful! Skip barefoot on the Spring lawn and enjoy the colors of the world. In change we grow and walk ahead. Wonderful write, but do not fear! Enjoy every minute of the Now. Love and hugs. Margherita  |

Timeless and ageless as the seasons turn, tales are told, first petals emerge, bursting forth in the stark gray, as passers-by take no notice, except for the eyes of the goddess who sees all and tells all.... |

Once a godess, always a godess. Old or young. You're special and it shows in every write. Going into my library. xx |
