a dVerse Twiglet

A March on Rain and Sleet

a new start,
they say, this spring,
this golden daffodil,
this sinking, stinking
sodden hill, this muddy
boot, this springy start
of pastel art, and so
I March on April’s
promise, this bringer,
this temptress.
this spring.

  1. Love it… spring is not the daffodils but also the mud… they come in pairs.

    1. Gosh, do they ever. Things are total muck around here.

  2. Oh yes….I’m reminded of the phrase “April showers bring May flowers” which is a romanticized way of saying you’re going to be sloshing in mud and puddles before the earth turns green! 🙂

  6. I absolutely love this, Misky! This poem describes my spring – except for the hill as we don’t have many of them in Norfolk! I especially love the breezy nod to Wordsworth’s ‘golden daffodil’ and
    ‘…this muddy
    boot, this springy start
    of pastel art’.
