On the Doorstep of Spring

I hear a rustle- A quiet struggle As emotions entangle. The wind stirs it Out from my bosom- Love in one gust, Wrath in another! A tussle. A ruffle. A shuffle. Quiet again! The cold wind blows Against the warmth of sun. The warm sun soothes Against the cold of wind. Passion in one whiff, Ache in another! Loud and quiet, Quiet and loud. Off the branch of memories Fall the wilted browns; Bare, bruised trees Brave the wind. A clump. A lump. A dump… On the doorstep of spring!
