Notes About The Poem

Winter's Afterglow Collaboration With Mystic Rose

Awaken, white and yellow daffodils
Entice the honeybees and butterflies
Bring back the blue birds to my window sill
So I can hear those spring time lullabies

Arouse oh robins, welcome in the green
I long to smell the scent of fresh cut grass
Just splash some color, nothing too obscene
A harbinger that winter soon will pass 

Arrange the sun, that it may tilt just so 
upon my shoulders warm as summer's eve  
The spring ensues the winter's afterglow 
And brings with it a touch of sweet receive
 
Let colors dance together in our dreams
And bathe with love's ensemble by the stream 


 Written by Mystic Rose and Daniel Turner
Thank you Vie for collaborating with me on this sonnet.
