March Into Spring

His icy grip comes loose at last.
   His blanket cannot but recede,
Like tides that breached a floodgate, he
Her coming can no more impede.

She saunters in, a slow sashay 
      enrobed in freshly scented cape  
that wakes the buds and songbird tune
      as shades of shamrock swathe the scape.
 
It is no place for charcoal greys,
   and barren boughs on colours feed 
Like tides that breached a floodgate, he
Her coming can no more impede.

As much awaited zephyrs blow, 
you sneeze out pollen, heartbeats pep

The season’s vibes can’t help but show..  
A spring for the journal..  spring in your step.

Sneha, this is nicely written and would have placed higher if the last lines hadn't been expanded to encompass all of the words that were once in the 15th and 16th lines. Just threw me off a bit. Congratulations on your win. There were many wonderful entries to this contest and nearly all of them were difficult to rank. Best wishes, Carolyn
