Spring Images

Senses of Spring

Stephanie Jeannot
My eyes hit the sun, it was morning on a day that had heart in it planned

The rain started literally falling and in it I began to dance

O'er my hair and my neck down my nape and my bodice

The rain simply poured, it poured all over me

So harmonious the sound as it hit the pane like the stacked sound of a melodious band

My ears heard the song of the rat-at-tat-at

And my feet started moving from front to back

And as the rain simply fell

My soul was simply well

Because like metal to a magnet to music I attract

I smelled the dew of that morning in spring

And the rain that was falling was mellowing

The land started to dry

Sunflowers began to rise

And the music now the air of the calm flowing

I touched the arm of a petal of a flower

Like silk it felt against my soft skin after showers

Standing tall full of poise to wind dances

The colors in the garden color enhances

Opening to the sun beam's longer hours

I tasted the seasonal fruits of the earth

So hungry for the grapes, pears and for more water thirst

Ice cream trucks rolling down the blocks

No wearing sandals and no socks

For the warmth Mother Nature recently birthed

I envisioned the sunniest warm day in the spring

And the lovers in laughter all echoing

And the trees swaying their branches

Full of leaves and to the wind dances

Oh what beauty in the sense of the beauty in spring images
