For Emile Pinet's "Sonnet Lipogram Poetry Contest about Spring"
Spring's whispers were present in the brisk night
promises of blooms mid summerlike skies
Yet winter's snowy white colors my sight
Could those promises be only her guise?
I long for endless nights to quickly end
though I own no quibble with the white moon
but on Spring and birdsong we do depend;
in this stillness, there is no lovely tune.
Spring does seem very unmindful of time
nor do freezing breezes stir her desire
for flowers blooming in sun shining clime
What does one do to light the stubborn fire?
Could it be spring is but choosing to hide,
or is this some version of Spring Untried?
