A Spring In My Step

Away bleak weather! It’s your time to flee. Sun shines down and gifts me with his glow. Pellucid are the streams from melting snow. Robin’s come. I see her in my tree! Ice and Sleet, it’s good to see you go! Now the earth is ready to regrow. Gladness sweetly takes a hold of me. I take a stroll outside. It’s such a treat. No longer do I trudge with dreary feet. My gait is lively as I amble where Yellow-flowered fields perfume the air. Spring, is here! I feel my spirit sing Thankfulness to God for everything. Effervescently I greet each day. Perpetually may this springtime stay! March 20, 2016 A 2-Time N/A for Chantelle Anne Cooke's Final Call Of Nas Your Most Meaningful One Poetry Contest

I went out to feed the squirrels this morning and heard the same old bird chirping loud as hell, this for several mornings, I searched the bare branches and there she was, a cardinal, probably ready to nest. You are so, so, so clever, dear. Love, daver
