Spring, Let Me Reclaim You

Dreaming of gaily-colored tulips red's majesty, iris purple sunburst yellow... Eyes grown heavy, curtains closing a smile dancing on dewy lips envisioning a soft April's morn... O, Spring, let me reclaim you if only for this moment if only in this dream ~ November 09, 2022 ~ Entry in a Brian Strand Premiere Poetry Contest

Gershon, just reminding you that anything is possible in a dream. :) Just close your eyes and imagine, "a smile dancing on dewy lips." Spring is in the air. (Well, in our dreams for now). Congratulations my sweet friend, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Congratulations, Gershon! on the POTD, but also on the idea of reclaiming Spring. As I grow older, I become more like our ancient ancestors, uncertain if Spring will come again. Elizabeth

The way things have changed in my lifetime, I wonder if the leaves will fall on top of the snow, or whether they'll be raked before the first snow comes. We'll see...
