I WISH YOU SPRING...by b. Malin

I wrote this piece a few years back. I would like to dedicate it to this Crazy Winter...And my friends up North... Whom I wish lots of Sunshine to melt the Snow, and a Beautiful early Spring...

Hey Spring, where are you?

I know that you're under that blanket of Snow...

Somewhere nestled deep,

Peacefully Sleeping.

While we walk around,

In a constant state of CHILL.

Most of us have learned to live with the Cold.

But "I" personally DESPISE it!

As one would, their worst enemy.

I envy those people who don't feel the cold...

Their skin has a HEALTHY GLOW.

While mine just gets CHAPPED AND RED,

And gives me the urge to stay in BED.

But just when I think, I've had enough...

That I can't take it anymore,

SPRING comes!

Glorious Spring...A time of rebirth...

And I come to life, once again.

I am reborn!

I have made it through.

The air around me smells so fresh, so new.

I feel Happy, for the first time in months.

I look up at the sky...

That big beautiful sky,

And watch birds of many colors flying by.
