Glow of the Universe

Warm spring sun talking to the trees,
Bringing the glow of the universe nigh
On the wings of a sweet-smelling breeze,
Warm spring sun talking to the trees
Bringing ol’ man winter to his knees,
Growing season eliciting a hopeful sigh
Warm spring sun talking to the trees,
Bringing the glow of the universe nigh.

Indiana Shaw Date: 3/5/2022 2:23:00 PM I love all the seasons me, but, its always nice when ol' man winter takes a rest, just loved the way your spring puts him to bed, a lovely uplifting Triolet, Milton . . . : ) Login to Reply L Milton Hankins Date: 3/7/2022 8:59:00 AM Thanks so much, Indiana. I find the form works well for Spring poems. Simple, direct imagery.

He sure won't be around here. It's a beautiful spring day here, but I know there is colder weather to come. March is tricky!
