A glimpse

I thought I caught glimpse of spring
sparkling within shadows
rainbow prisms
reflecting inside dew drops
Snow flakes
fading across the sun
melting
Buds hidden but bulging
leaves wrapped, waiting
branches waving willingly
Inviting just one whisper
For spring to place footprints
Into meadows inviting warmth
Waiting for butterflies

    oh my! lovely!
    I thought the picture was so endearing, you really ran with it! and brought light to the sad face of the little boy!


    I also really like the fact that there are no periods, and that you distinguish new sentences/thoughts by capping the first letter...it allows the poem to flow unhindered

    I especially LOVED:

    "Inviting just one whisper
    For spring to place footprints
    Into meadows inviting warmth
    Waiting for butterflies >>>>>>>I love that you really brought out the

    image that they are waiting for something, spring, in this case. I like the details you added they are inviting spring...a delightful idea!


    ~ an endearing poem, perfectly aligned with the prompt!

    g'luck~
