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. written March 5, 2022

Oh, I love them myself. They are so easy to write. Well, I think so, anyway.

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 . . . : )

Thanks so much, Indiana. I find the form works well for Spring poems. Simple, direct imagery.

Ol' man winter certainly won't be missed. Tom

You can say that again, Tom. 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!

I hope it is as nice outside as your poem, Milt! Gotta get away from the computer and outside myself!

I'm about ready to get outside, too. This is a perfect day!
