Seasonal Affect

Poppy field.jpg



You’re the wistful call
Of doves,


The sad music
Of the sea,

Your melody a mood
And your song
Haunts me.


You’re the colours
Of the fall,

The Moon blurred
Behind a cloud,

Your lips and hair
Brighter
Than dawn’s gold hour .


Softer than rain
In the depths
Of the night,

Quiet as a swallow
In silent flight,


You’re the wind
In Maples

A rush
Of sudden showers,

Sweet as the spice
Of spring's tender flowers.

We're ready for spring here in southern Cali... and I think we're on the brink.

Lovely, hopeful poetry... Thank you!

😄😇😄

Thanks, my friend. We're also looking forward to 10 days of mild temperatures and the last of the snow pack has pretty well melted away. Middlemarch isn't just a novel, it's a state of mind up here :)

I am so ready for spring and after reading your poem I am really really really ready. :-)

I am too - it's raining here and a little bit of thunder - very spring-like despite the snow pack :)
