Longing For Spring

We’re in the midst of winter
Enduring the cold weather,
Jack Frost comes at a cost
As many lives will be lost.
The ice has been slippery,
I fell and hurt my knee.
We’ve had blizzards blowing –
It has been really freezing. 

Spring can’t come too soon
With life to blossom and bloom
With Mother Nature’s nurturing
Of sowing, feeding and growing.
I’m pining for a warmer climate
But I’ll have to patiently wait.

A sonnet.
 
I wrote this last week while it was snowing here in the UK.
 
Thank you. Love love, Andrew. Bye.

  1. Yes Andrew, I too am awaiting the spring. This wind and rain is getting boring.

  2. I'm sensing a pattern here as I play catch up, Andrew! I think you've had enough of winter. My husband and I spent December in Arizona. I was worried to see our Rockies when I returned, because there is no snow pack visible to speak of. It's been dry and warm here, and I worry about water in Colorado and all the downstream states that depend on our snowpack. I hope spring comes soon to you!
