Maybe Spring

The purple ground cover came up overnight
Miraculously covering the yard in blankets
I step gingerly, coaxing winter daisies to take a hint
Sidestep a teeny white violet, a motorcycle sound in the distance.

Thank you Ilene. I sat out in the sun on a 75 degree day and wrote 23 poems in a row.

Thank you Nette. You know it is weird but until you hear the motorcycle, it does not quite feel like spring yet.
