Please, Spring.

The bluest sky says spring.
The fresh, green grass shoots upward.
The flowers blossom with joy.

But the cold still plays with me
In the brisk wind
That blows my hair
And reminds me that our part of the earth
Is just not ready for warm breezes.

It saddens me and I shudder.
I am just not patient enough
For spring to come.
I want to abandon my sweater
And feel the warm sun on my skin.

Please spring.
Come to me now.
Bring me joy.


I am participating in the 
March Slice of Life Challenge.
Each day we post our thoughts.
Thank you, Two Writing Teachers!

Day 29 - Please, Spring.

  2. The winter is not too bad this year BUT I am done with layers of clothing as well. I just want to go out and sit under the sun for hours just like you.

  3. Karen this is beautiful. I often feel not patient enough and I love the idea of the sun on my skin. It is supposed to snow here this weekend....
