Notes About The Poem

The Promise of Spring

A palette of sounds, smells, and colors;
Spring fills the canvas of my mind
with Her stoic beauty.
And once more, Her fabulous frescos,
fuel my passion for impressionism:
when She dapples Winter's wet stucco
with vibrant splashes of color.  
And my heart is stimulated
by Her earthy sweet-scented breath.
Nothing feels as refreshing
as a Spring shower;
the feel of renewal
is encapsulated within each drop. 
Robin-Redbreasts and daffodils;
early harbingers of Spring,
magically, change the landscape.
Flowers bloom in copious colors;
and songbirds add a vibrant pulse
to the heart of Spring!
I cherish Spring's sweet smile;
for smiles are made of hope:
and hope is the promise of Spring.

L Milton Hankins May 9, 2021 at 9:47 AM Beautiful images of spring, Emile. I think you possibly mean "stimulated" instead of "simulated" in line 8, but the poem certainly works for me. Nice writing! Emile Pinet May 9, 2021 at 11:35 AM Thanks Milt, I appreciate your comments and for pointing out that typo, I always appreciate it when someone takes the time to do so my friend, Emile.
