Spring

These moments,
This pregnant Pause,

the birds start to sing louder 
and louder,

miracles start to seem
Possible again.

From the dark cold of winter
I stand in this space,

This space where the snow queen
hands back her palace,

For a moment,
This pregnant pause,

where sunlight comes back,
to check,

To check 

what it may raise up 
again.
