False Spring

 


  • Spring knocks early on my door 

    Her cheeks glow like melting butter 

    A fresh bloom of daffodils lined up upon the window sills 

    And sturdy, concrete wall

    It is nice to wake to light – to have more hours in the day to read and write 

    Even the birds chirrup with a spring in their song

    Not that winter has properly passed

    There are still cold mornings and crisp, fresh frosts 

    The need to wear thick and toasty socks

    To wrap up in bed in the afternoons 

    Perhaps I am more aware of seasons but I can feel the world turning now

    Paddle a toe in its’ waters 

    The world continues a-pace and I am part of it.
