Stepping out of the house
The chill in the air cuts through me
I hug myself with both arms crossed
Holding tightly to my coat
I take deep breaths to smell the air.
I can taste spring at the tip of my tongue
Feeling hopeful for a brighter day
I turn to head towards the park
A host of spring buds waiting
To blossom and radiate
Fighting their way through
Emerging from the morning frost
The sun caressed them, and they melted.
Smiling towards the golden sky
Rising to reach the rays of light
That made them shine and glow
The air that fed them to grow
And the earth that cradled their roots
Pushed them above their heads
To reach new heights of life
Spring that visits once a year
Leaves a legacy that
Gives hope to the hopeful
That carries the hearts dreams
Her fragrance is for us to cherish
Infusing us with new energy!
The season that brings life
New beginnings’
Through the ice and snow
Keeps the heart growing
Knowing that she’s coming
Sentimental Journeys
