Revived

snow
        and ice
    howling winds 
 buried under drifts
         chilled  

         spring
        sun light
     soft breezes
  life's pulse revived
         thawed

Both (winter's passing and spring's arrival) are, indeed, worthy of love! :) gw

I can feel how much you're longing for spring with this evocative write, should do well in the contest!

Yup, you're right: I'm longing for Spring, but Spring apparently isn't coming for a long time. So maybe I should be 'shorting' for Spring, and then it'll come shortly. LOL. Who knows? Whatever works... ~ gw

Alexis, I've just realized what I should do. I should ask Poetry Soup to let you judge all the contests. Ha, ha: I'd win a bunch of them then (perhaps)… LOL.... Thank you so much for your kind words, your encouragement and support. Best wishes, Gershon
