Farewell, Winter

The sharp bite of winter
In her freezing heights
With chills that shiver the hearth
And seek shelter from the flakes;
Through soft, floating kisses
An irreversible need,
With dreams of a new season
Pulling the wind to retrieve
Each day from its cold  existence
When buds start to whirl
As snow melts under sun's display--
Here and now, I say farewell
To an equinox ready for an adieu;
Waving" next time"; her wonder
A blessing and a trial!
