Chosen theme: Quagmire. Written for the contest sponsored by Constance La France 31/01/2024
Eternal rainfall spring gardens suffer
Alluring snowdrops drowned in sea of mud
Water deluge cascading down gutter
Daffodils suffer because of the flood.
There is sadness about springtime quagmire
With noses pressed against wet window pane
Waterfall moment nothing to admire
Birds do not sing mellifluous refrain.
Weather forecast grim there is no bright spot
Expectations of spring completely bleak
Wait, silently sleeping "Forget-me-Knot"
Pretty blue flower that is quite unique.
Emotional quagmire Spring Garden dire
Thoughts have moved forward will summer inspire?
