Thoughts of Spring

THOUGHTS OF SPRING

my despondency
boredom urges thoughts of spring
blue jay on the wing

same old dreary sky
cold, stoic eyes view the scene
mind caught half-between

better than nothing
this thought of tulip’s rainbow
when one’s feeling low

Oh, I love the thought of "tulip rainbows".:) Very clever image, Daver! Good to call up thoughts of Spring to chase away the doldrums of "despondency". Take it further and paint the "dreary sky" a cheery colour? Still, I like this exactly how it is! Perfect images to describe these dull late winter days.:( Keep well...Love, Mikki
