Notes About The Poem

It is Spring

how the wildflowers thrive
it is Spring
that cheers the stones
plucking daisies
placing on a memory
swept, scrubbed
doused and cleansed

her name was hidden
amidst the wild abandon
snip, snip, pull up roots
careful hands revive
it is Spring
that cheers the stones
and an unrelenting heart

Hilda Greenhough April 17, 2026 at 10:27 AM Spring, it's such a time of endings and time of beginnings. Somehow, two opposites of life come together. I felt the deep thoughts of your poem. It is wonderful. Kim Rodrigues April 17, 2026 at 12:57 PM Thank you, Hilda. Love your thoughtful description.
