Notes About The Poem

Written on April 10th, 2025 for Brian's M Prompt. "O, wind, if winter comes, can spring be far behind?" - Percy Bysshe Shelley.

Renewal

shaking off 
    the stagnation 
 of winter’s hold 
ivory snow m e l t s
   nourishing Gaia’s soul
jump-starting 
    millennium-old cycles...
birdsong brings 
    the dawn of a new season
salmon streams 
  of wispy clouds 
streak crystal-clear skies..
whilst early morning 
   dewdrops glisten 
on opening spring buds~ 
a silken zephyr cascades
       across saline waters
mingling with the 
   scent of freshly 
cut grass in warm breezes...
buttery daffodils cluster
    creating nature’s bouquets~
rebirth resounding, 
    hope coursing through
 every molecule 
                 of oxygen
