Welcome to the poem-off.
Read my partner-in-poems, @mitchelljaworski's last entry here: Sweet Freedom
And my response below...
Spring
Spring comes
Close by
Soon to arrive
Here, where winter
Has lasted so long,
And the cold of it
Soaked down
Into our bones,
Beneath our skin,
Touching the heart,
Turning it to stone.
Withdrawing now,
The numb recedes
A new season brings
New life,
And the ice melts away.
I see the first signs
Can't you feel the air?
Crisp with new beginnings
Clearing the path
Now covered so long
By past seasons' debris,
We are free now
To begin planting
Seeds
For a new tomorrow.
What's a poem-off, you ask? Just a little thang that started a little bit ago. I read a poem that @mitchelljaworski posted, from his old-school writing days. It reminded me of all of my old-school poems, so I challenged him to see if we could go turn-for-turn and repost long lost words from the vaults of time. No rules apply, and new stuff might just make the mix. Check it out, y'all. Follow the links down the rabbit hole...

Yesssss!.....I actually have a perfect one for this, it is one of the first poems I ever wrote and actually transitions us into a love theme :-)
Oh thank goodness, because I'm getting to a point where it's mostly love poems left... :D Well, some angry and bitter, but about love, nonetheless. ;)
Spring will soon be in the air! This makes me feel it!
Yay!! Bring on the warm weather! :D
Lovely soft and warm glow of springtime!
Trying to make it come faster. :)
