Her Gate


                             Colors start to wake

                             Dancing sparkles on the lake

                             Spring opens her gate

Well David, despite all you are going through, it was especially kind of you to take the time to acknowledge my poem. I hope you feel better both emotionally and physically.

The understated 'simplicity' of these lines is profound, Marikate. Images that stay with the reader, i.e., me. Thank you. Here's to a 'sparkling Spring.' ~ Gershon P.S. TYSM for all of your visits to my site and your kind, encouraging words.

This is so calming and beautiful! I love how just a few words paint such a vivid picture—feels like the world is gently stretching awake with spring. That last line is perfect.
