spring

through cracks in cloudy skies
beams of this young sun cut
like morning light creeps in
the crack between my curtains

thick blankets of snow melt into
rainy days and green shoots
as winter loses its stubborn hold
and the world slips into spring

warmth wakes the earth
pulling it from its hibernation
the time for sleep is over
now comes the rebirth of nature

hesitant flowers are coaxed
out of hiding and into bloom
bright colours flowing around me
i find myself in a painter's paradise

down drift gentle blossoms
pale petals flutter in the breeze
as a flowing skirt may ripple
caressed by the soft spring draft

sunlight casts a glow on everything
casts a smile upon my face
and somehow I begin to enjoy
early morning walks in the rain

it's times like these when magic
could almost be believable
when the grey clouds clear and
the sun shines through my curtains
