A rhapsody of sounds, smells, and colors, Spring fills the canvas of my mind with Her stoic beauty. And once more, Her fabulous frescos reawaken my taste for impressionism, as She dapples Winter's white with vibrant splashes of color. And my heart feels stimulated by the sweet-scented breath of a sensual Spring. Nothing feels as refreshing as a sparkling Spring shower, the feel of renewal encapsulated within each drop. Robin-redbreasts and daffodils early harbingers of Spring, methodically change the landscape, as flowers bloom in copious colors and songbirds provide the vibrant pulse, that is the heart of Spring! My spirit savors the aura of Spring's sweet smile for smiles are made of hope, and hope is the promise of Spring. (Free Verse) 5/09/2021 Nature Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Regina McIntosh

Thank you Emile for reminding us that Spring always keeps her promise to come back and renew life in a "rhapsody" and "smiles...made of hope." These are truly spirit renewing lines. Blessings of spring to you!

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!
