_____________________________________________________

My eyes to something beautiful are drawn
up past the peaks where clouds of pink are swirled.
I take up my pen seeing her again.
It’s the Enchantress Spring I look upon.
She stands with long hair streaming in the wind
of a glorious, bright, beautiful dawn
as the temperate breeze embraces her.
She banishes harsh days. Winter is gone!
Bird song and lushness she conjures the world.
Seeing her again, I take up my pen
to capture all the magic Spring brings on.

Andrea, even though it's summer and hot, traces of spring still appear if we know where to look. There's always magic to be found by those who know where to look. Your words, for example. Smiling I am.

I love the personification and alliterations. You have written this so nicely dear, Andrea. "I take up my pen seeing her again. It’s the Enchantress Spring I look upon. She stands with long hair streaming in the wind." We want to Ink down these beautiful moments when we see them. Life of the poet. Best wishes in the contest.
