"Do I force the spring / By imagining / These leaflets of the lightest brightest green / And do my eyes deceive me?"

Transcendental Sonnet #1296:

Through Eyes Once Dead Dawn's First Faint Rays

 

Do I force the spring

By imagining

These leaflets of the lightest brightest green

And do my eyes deceive me?

 

They appear in this winter which has been

The daily bread of these my famine days

Of sorrow which now grieve me

Which I thought were forever and always

 

But death now yields to life winter to spring

If my heart will believe me

Accept that I am not imagining

And dare to hope that there is hope for me

 

I see these signs of life and hungrily

Devour through eyes once dead dawn's first faint rays

I think this poem stays the longing and desire we all must strive for if we are forced to make a new start and that is to seek and find that first sign that it is out there. Nice capture and you have opened your soul well in this writing.
