Old Man Winter {choka}

winters foliage
blankets trees and grassy knolls
water runs amidst

towering white pines
standing in complete solace
above canyon ridge

melting ice pellets
pumps from bleeding hearts vineyard 
sowing escalates





So Glad Winter Is Over   LOL

I thought I was glad winter is over, but your poem brings back the season's incredible beauty, along with the sounds and sights of the changing season. Each verse a winner, together just awesome Good luck! Love, Shar
