A Whiff of Spring

A whiff of Spring’s A lovely thing And oh, such joy It seems to bring! A sunny bench Helps to unclench The stress and sadness I can’t quench. It will not last; Tonight a blast Of frigid air Will come on fast. But that small whiff Reminds me if I wait, there’ll soon Be blooms to sniff.

Hi Ilene. You must really live in the city if you recognize the bench as man's refuge. I concure. The feel of the sun on that bench has put me in the mood to go on...LOL Trevor

A lovely poem. For some reason I enjoy watching spring show up in little spurts. John
