Spring Running Away

The dark mountain looked angry today Towering in the gray clouds The ridge lines displayed a face Staring down at me Hills that are a monument to this creation Stand tall before us It wore white not long ago When winter dressed the land Cold air returned again today It sent spring running away It is as if the mountain wasn’t pleased Or my own disappointment I could see Heidi Sands 5/9/17

I loved how you made that mountain come alive, Heidi. Spring is wearing its grouchy face today here in Missouri:) Amitiés

Thank you Anne-Marie. I am sorry to hear Spring has a grouchy face today in Missouri. It is really taking it's time to come and stay this year here.

It does seem that spring can be a bit timid sometimes when it comes to old man winter. A nice little poem Heidi well done.
