Early Thaw Spring Waltz




Crisp and chilled in winter sublime,


 

Meandering through twists in time.


 

Rushing along warmed by sun beams,


 

singing a song early thaw cool and clean.


 







 




Nature awakens from a long languid sleep,


 

slow icy waters rush in promise to keep.


 

Spring awakens crystal drips from the branch,


 

rush to join a river in a hurried nature dance.


 







 




Crocus fledgling sprouts through a thick soft bed,


 

rotted leaf of last summer's demise nourished and fed.


 

Strings of dried vines play violins lilting cords sweet,


 

breezes are warming in early thaws symphony treat.


 







 




I bundled cozy warm join in the waltz celebration,


 

can't await the blossoms of spring's communal delegation.


 




~~~Suseann~~~

    This is deeply moving and very beautiful. The way the lines are separated, I failed to see that it was a 'sonnet' until the last two lines. Your presentation is soothing. The background, border... Excellent. I wish you the best in this challenge.

    it is such a pretty poem of the very image, Suseann and does feel to dance in the meter of spring-time images. really nice formatting of the poem and page decoration as well. I love these fade-in backgrounds! Best wishes to you in the contest!
