‘Twas the night before spring – when all through the land
Not a snowflake was falling – despite winter’s command
Flip-flops & sandals waiting to be worn
In hopes that spring would be born in the morn
All of us waiting for the next day to arrive
Excited for nature to come alive
Dormant grass – ready to turn green
Flora & fauna – waiting to be seen
When out from the sky – came a boom of thunder
I ran outdoors & caught the rainbow wonder
I jumped for joy & shouted with glee
For winter was gone & spring was set free
Good Night & Sweet Dreams-

Thanks Wendy!
Not spring at my doorstep yet. I have a spotlight on my house in hope that she will find her way soon.

What a great way to usher in spring RoSy!

I was hoping that spring would think the same thing. But – she hasn’t showed up yet.
Cold is me.

You are feeling the spring aren’t we. Beautiful and creative writing.

I’m feeling spring – until I go outside & get smacked by winter – LOL

My knight in shining armour – set my spring free, too!!!
Mar 21, 2013 @ 13:29:06
I think the knight got stuck in the snow or froze in the cold somewhere…
