About This Poem

Bringing On The Sunshine

Oh, how cold and heartless is the winter wind The landscape under snow has been pinned. I need the warmth of spring, I feel forlorn The sun has gone to sleep, all careworn. You are a season, you have to do your time but if you go away, I wouldn't care a dime. It is so deathly silent all around me The birds and the bees, I cannot see Where are the flowers and the trees? All snowed in and feeling the freeze. So ease off winter, off you go On us, the warmth of spring bestow. I want to feel the sun's rays, bask in its glare Soak up the heat of a weather, so fair Butterflies, birds and bees having their fare As myriad flowers bloom to brighten the air. The fragrance of winter aconite fills my senses Frosty white bells of common snowdrops dispenses. Clear blue skies with little tufts of cotton Symphony of birds, one's mood to sweeten. A gentle breeze caresses, soothing Embellishing, touching, new life infusing.

    Makes me have hope Yassie, even when the balls on my brass monkey froze! Poor critter, we like him take what we are given and dream about the season you describe that eventually comes. Your pen holds the secret I'm waiting for. Hugs to you dear girl! Love, Lizzie

    Ha, everyone is dreaming of the spring. I am ready too, lol. Luckily, this winter has not been that bad. Only had snow once. Enjoyed, Yasmin. Let's dream for the spring :)

    I am a man in his dreams right now for I love the winter myself! I know many love the Spring, and I understand that, but my heart is in the winter as I hate the Hot days of summer! Spring and Autumn aren't bad, and actually Autumn is my favorite season...it leads to winter's cold! Why do I like winter? It just peaceful, and the cool crisp air is just something special! I respect those that like the Spring however, I do understand the want for warmer temperatures! Awesome write, Great Work!!
