It is always the same. Year after year. Like waiting for a date Who is an hour late. Will she ever come? Am I Being stood up. Then without warning She appears from nowhere The prom queen of seasons. Carrying baskets of wildflowers. Dancing through fields Of bright yellow daffodils. Around her the misty rains Warming Blue azure skies Her blossomed breath Kissing my cheek. We play like children Frolicking barefoot In the meadows of green. Dotted white with new life. And her late arrival is forgiven. How can her beauty not Melt the coldest heart. And even the harsh winter snows melt in her radiance
