Spring, Where Are You? The cold wind is blowing, with no sunshine showing, and now it is snowing! Spring, where are you? Plant life should be teaming new stems and buds streaming, yet, Spring is daydreaming midst the cold brew. We've held off our planting, no seedlings transplanting. More nor'easters ranting! What can we do? This Winter's still fighting the Springtime we're sighting... long days, the sun lighting flowers in view. Cold Winter days clinging, as Spring's out there winging; our hopeful hearts singing, let Spring come through! Sandra M.

Sandra, I think he wants you to have the word violette in the title. I would hate for something this beautiful to be disqualified. Check the contest rules again. I am trying with this. You have done a great job.

Oh, thank you very much, Sian! I surely missed that rule and have made the change. So nice of you to let me know. And I also appreciate your very supportive comments. Thanks again! Hugs, Sandra

We're currently experiencing 'Beast from the East MK II' over here, Sandra, more snow and minus six. I'm with you on this one, a lovely write. We shall yearn together. Viv x

Yes, it has been a 'beastly' winter, and there's another possible nor'easter on the way! Thanks for your always supportive comments, Viv! Much appreciated! Sandra :)

Sandra, I love your meter and rhyme. Yours is the only one so far that follows the strict definition of feminine rhyme and you did it so effortlessly. I wrote mine before I read the definition; I think I need to try again. John

Thank you, John, for the visit and uplifting comments. I do hope this is what the form requires! Sandra :)
