Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
Spring’s Kiss
A pall of melancholy hangs in the air
for Spring’s quick death came all too soon
with the birth of the sun’s fervid glare
and the waning of the lush pink moon.
These precious mornings are gentle and cool
when bold mockingbirds sing hallelujah to dawn
as orange Lantana shines like carnelian jewels
longing for golden rays of the fiery hot sun.
When summer roars in with a cruel mighty fist
these serene mornings will be but a remembrance
as hearts yearn for days when Spring’s gentle kiss
made flowers bloom for it’s picturesque entrance.

We always yearn for spring in the winter and fall in the summer. We always complain about Summer and winter. ☺❤

We had a week of gentle spring in February, but today definitely has more of summer’s intensity.

Why thank you Drew- your kind words mean so much. I love nature- my dream life, living in a little cottage somewhere surrounded by nature- that would be a dream come true.
