Ann Gilmour Poet Acrostic

New Beginnings

N ow as I am gazing through the tunnel I see light
E ach day getting brighter before the darkness of the night
W ith spring around the corner she is bursting to ignite

B lossoms dressed in frills and flounces ready to display
E xquisite and excited for their very special day
G loriously adorned awaiting to impress
I s it nearly time they ask ~ for today they look their best
N ature has awakened from her annual winter slumber
N ew and vibrant hues they don now winters truly gone
I really love the spring time it’s my favourite time of year
N ow we truly need this boost for to banish all our fear
G ood news breaks as we begin to vaccinate the nation
S o happy to get our lives back ~ spring starts our celebration

Sam Kauffman February 7, 2021 at 10:33 AM Ann this is truly a "celebration" with "fills and flounces," in "bursting," "vibrant hues" of images and metaphor. Congratulations on your win dear friend!
