"The earth has music for those who listen." quote _Shakespeare Winter I survived and nature is alive, the bees are humming in their hive; soon the trees will wear emerald gowns, casting off all the dullness of browns; I love taking a long, long country drive ! Rain falling makes the forests revive, the wildflowers are blooming and thrive; and all around are happy bird sounds. Winter I survived ! On my porch garden will plant and contrive, oh, I hope my seedlings will survive; soon children will be laughing in playgrounds, Lord, your light makes all things arise; I will keep beauty so my soul will thrive. Winter I survived ! ___________________ April 18, 2022 Poetry/Rondeau/Winter I survived Copyright Protected, ID 04-1449-558-18 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Premier contest, Your Favorite Theme sponsor, Regina McIntosh, Judged 04/12/2022 Fourth Place
