old Spring comes lightly
nuzzled by thoughts of what was
and what never will

...sounds like those days of spring whan the snow is not quite gone, the trees are bare, the sun is bright but a cool wind from the north just keeps that carefree summer feeling at bay!

Nothing wrong with this in my eyes

You're on a roll.
I think this speaks universally, though in some sense it reads personal to me, maybe because I know you. Probably because I know you.
Anyway, lol
universally, I think we all cast things off come Spring, whether by cleaning or adding or removing something from our life. it's a pattern i notice in people this time of year, everyone is doing it - somehow.
it is regeneration
kinda scary, really
but not a bad thing
new is good
new is opportunity
i'm feeling optimistic right now, though
lol
