The Scent Of Spring

The tell-tale scent of Spring sweetens the air, when the rivers and lakes no longer freeze; and a gilded sun melts away despair. While Winter's duvet, sullied and threadbare, gets replaced by budding bushes and trees; the tell-tale scent of Spring sweetens the air. Wildflowers blossom with color and flare; earthy aromas perfume every breeze, and a gilded sun melts away despair. Green patches are sprouting up everywhere; and as saplings slowly unfold their leaves, the tell-tale scent of Spring sweetens the air. Daffodils start popping up here and there gambling that Spring's arrival's not a tease, and a gilded sun melts away despair. A treat for the senses, fragrant and rare, one whiff and your tensions begin to ease. The tell-tale scent of Spring sweetens the air, and a gilded sun melts away despair.

You handled this form so well, rather than it handling of you. Impressive. I particularly enjoyed the notion of 'nature's' tease.
