Spring Stirs

Pent-up hearts release longing sighs
   Winter's paused to reveal blue skies
Spring stirs for a moment, then wonders
   When snowfalls will tear her asunder

A sweet, quick taste of spring, like a strange girl's kiss, alas, gone too soon.

That stirring, the tense moment...will the weather lay down her fine green carpet...put the snow white one away.

Yup. Got a respite this weekend. High 40's and 50's, and the snow melted. This week? -- Back comes winter. Here's to Health, Happiness, and Spring! :) gw
