Joyce Johnson Poet Rhyme

A Recharge

In coldness of a winter night
With sliver of a moon for light,
I walk along the frozen way,
Remembering a summer’s day.

Come, come, my love, and walk with me.
The wind is blowing out to sea.
Seasons forever roll around.
Lost summer's love, can be refound.
				
We’ll seek the violets where they hide,
The daffodil’s winter abide.
The tiny snowbells showing through
Are proof enough love can renew. 

Triumphantly, one bright spring day
The blossoms as a love bouquet
Will cheer a winter near dried heart.
Just so, a true love can restart.

		
 
won a no. 1 in Brian's contest
