Coming Of Spring

Thoughts as I look out at the countryside....

"Wisps of clouds, grab the tops of the snow covered mountains
Grays, white, and a shallow band of blue dominate the sky.            
Stark trees, waiting for spring; new life appears.
Wooly lambs, soon, gamboling in the fresh-smelling grass.

Ah the sound feel and smell of spring always makes me happy

[Samuel Dickens]

The transition of one season to the next always sets me pondering life, marveling at nature's splendor, and even going inside myself in search of truth. A very nice poem, Diane.

Thank you, I travel back and forth to Central Utah, and have gained inspiration for several of my poems. Highway 89 runs from the Canadian border, near Glacier Park to the Mexican border, and passes through the middle of Utah. Most of the road is two lanes, and life is at a slower pace; the original 89 is now, State Street in Salt Lake City, and runs to the steps of the Capitol...

Four lines and double impact. Theme's great and i can see some views of spring now, because it's now a days too warm and you made my night by this piece.
lively write.

Thank you for your thoughtful words, and stopping by....

To me line 3 has a weakness... "new life appears," those words feel unjoined to the stark trees. A case of I understand (I think) what your thought was expressing, it's just the shorthand symbols left out a 'squiggle'.

Thank you, I see what you mean; they are not connected, so it needs ; - correct?
I appreciate you dropping by.... Diane

Rose, Thank you, I found it today, and this is the cut off, plus I posted two stories on Fan Story. Will be adding to this one, shortly, and I upated my profile too. Talk to you soon... Diane

You use some good imagery in this, but I think you ought to have expanded a little more. At present this is all a little nebulous and meaningless.

[Diane Lockard]

Thank you for the comment, it is for a contest for imagery in 6 lines or less....
