Spring will forever be the time for renewals when brisk fresh air invigorates our drowsy muse. Tickling every inner child, beckoning them to come out for a playdate. And ever so gleefully we crack open the treasure chest of possibilities, dust it off to see what gems we can uncover. dawn of fresh beginnings old shoes new paths AP: 2nd place 2025, Honorable Mention 2025 Submitted on March 7, 2021 for contest SPRINGTIME HAIBUN sponsored by M.L.
