Dark Winter Ends, Welcome Spring

DARK WINTER ENDS, WELCOME SPRING
 
The first day of winter came with harsh news.
My brother, his wife and son contracted
Covid, then seventeen others tested
positive, for this virus does not choose
it’s victims that it suddenly suffused
our family; three lives terminated. 

All three commemorated, as winter
ends and as spring nears, bringing needed light
to overcome the dire, dark winter’s sight.
Welcome spring, a revival to enter
our family again or deliver
new beginnings to give us more insights.

Spring in a week, will bring growth and new hope,
changing darkness to light for us to cope.
