Spring's In the Air

Winter's winking wearily in the sun
gracefully giving ground
knowing Spring will never run

Muted, molted, monochromatic colors turn
vibrant, vivacious, victoriously
welcoming the return

Soft, subtle scents in the air
lilacs lovingly linger
in the tresses of my hair

Pink petals purling to the ground
blossoms blindly blowing
whirling all around

Daisies dancing daintily in the breeze
flowers frolicking freely
after thawing from the freeze

Daylight dilly dallies, delaying days end
encircling, enticing, enchanting
like the embrace of a friend.

*end* TDR 4-14-15
