New beginnings are always possible, if we just let them happen... This is a beautiful poem, full of meaning and imagery. Very well written and expressed, Kim!

Can't come soon enough for me. Wednesday it'll be 60 degrees here. (Friday - snow, of course). But the trees look out-of-place without their foliage...

Especially with no snow all season! We usually get one day, but not this year!

hi Kim, I think you’re talking about life answering maybe I’m wrong that’s how I read it. I live in wine country, and the trees are already in bloom here. Even though Southern California had snow, none here I really don’t like berry trees in winter I find that depressing and I’m a real Spring freak find you.Xx
