Spring Showers and Queen Bees

the last vestiges of winter
leave with the warming of air
and the strong wind gusting 
as the hot and cold clash 
in the battle of the Titans 

what was frost is now defrost
as I yearn to venture outside
and be hugged by the spring season

sudden downpours alert me to 
change in the air
a sniff of flower and sunshine 
that warms as it illuminates 

torrential rains knock at my window
washing away the old
as queen bees knock at my door
seeking the best real estate 
to plant the nest 
and start a new family

the very drops of water
I shuddered from in the cold
I now embrace
as a sign 
of better days to come
