Spring is around the corner
while I linger
at it’s threshold
As a lonely captive
of a dying fireplace
that can’t seem to warm me
anymore…

Shivering…
shedding the dampness
not trusting the sun yet
Spring…
only one step away…
Should I…
Can I…
Shall I…

totally agree with Mysteria!  Can't wait to get that barefoot feeling again, where the warmth creeps in through the toes...  It'll be here soon...

Didn't look like Spring last night when storms were hauling and rain was pouring and I was sitting in the stable all night waiting for a ewe to lamb, which happened 'round 4.30am this morning and guess what....she got 3!!!.

Very nice poem Neeraja, maybe Spring will listen to your words.

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Sometimes we think too much, (I know I do) just let spring bloom, and it will.

Watch!!

Poignant and beautiful Neeraja.

Absolutely! You should!
