Notes About The Poem

Anemones from the fields of Greece. My photo.  

FESTIVE SPRING

Oh, heralds of euphoria,
Your anxious trumpets do not keep silent,
But
Let them play with all their dexterity, the 
Long-awaited melody of spring 
For
The gates of beauty, finally, have
Opened today,
Inviting us to enter the citadel
Of nature's renewal, 
And
On the throne of cheerfulness, all of us, humans
To place!
Come,
Oh, you precursors of jubilation,
Come, to announce the festive news for all
To hear:
Joy is back,
Gloom is gone,
Felicity has arrived,
Bliss is enthroned,
Spring has come to life!

I know about Canada's weather. Do not forget I lived there, Montreal, for twenty years. My daughter lives there with my grandchild. I have been a Canadian citizen since 1976. I love Canada so much since it allowed me to study and to teach. Blessings! Darlene De Beaulieu February 24, 2026 at 10:16 AM Hello Demetrios, I love Canada as well. It is good to see you aw well.
