Spring Fling

The decrepit Winter door drudges open drearily,
			And with it, delivers a deluge of drunken delight--
			Soft succulent sapphire skies violate my visions,
			I stand suffused with muse and mystery in moiety;
			A masked man in vast lands of vivacious vehicles,
			Each infusing ineffable idyllic ideas into my mind;
			Black and blue sockets, eyes beaten by the barrage,
			Blinded by the balmy birth of a blistering breed;
			This season on Earth, first fauna felt after the melt,
			Helps herald the harbingers of heavenly halcyon;
			Spring-suede-sod serenely softens somnolent steps,
			Woken from within Winter's weary woebegone walls;
			Lunges of my lithe legs leave languid lassitude lost,
			A grimace graciously gone I gambol glorious groves;
			Ethos ebulliently erupting into opulent olfactory scents,
			Precious-painted-petals, the smell of perfumed petrichor;
			Vestigial vents of weather'y whiffs and feather'y sniffs,
			Revolvers of rhapsodic rays release heat upon my rust;
			Consummate creations cascading comely conflations,
			Slowly saunter splintered shadows of snowy sorrow;
			A demure dalliance decadently drizzled in dulcet desire,
			My forgotten fear of yesterday's forever falling flakes;
			An everlasting elixir of eloquently enchanting equinox,
			Fixes my frostbitten flaws and forges fresh life until Fall;
