"Spring I yield to you and brighter rhymes / Sweet spring light my days today and always"


Poem Artwork

Transcendental Sonnet #1348:
Outside My Window

It is late now and the only thing
Left for me to do is yield to spring
Nothing I have done before has been
Successful no one knows what I mean
If anyone still listens at all
To me since I went into freefall

Depressed people are not welcome near
Those who have it better whether here
There or for that matter anywhere

Spring is blooming outside my window
I smell the desert when the winds blow
And it reminds me of better times
Spring I yield to you and brighter rhymes
Sweet spring light my days today and always

+Steven Curtis Lance

Even through your depression you write such beautiful poetry. This made me think of a sad face gazing out of a window. I could feel the emptiness and sorrow that permeates through your words and yet there is a hope within. Perhaps Spring will bring it.
Lovely work Stevie!

Steve,

Powerful, heartfelt poetry; I, too, suffer at times from depression. If I feel like writing "dark," I do; if "light" lifts me, if only for a moment, I write light. I write so I do not harm myself. It's been a lifesavor.

Keep writing--you have a stunning command of meter and rhyme!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :(

Spring is a time for rebirth, Stevie. Rebirth, not only of plants and trees, birds and bees but also a time to cleanse the human spirit. This is your chance to shine. Embrace it and never lose sight of what is possible. You are your destiny.
Hope this helps.

Gotta love it. Spring. Blooming things. Blooming idiots. Chiggers. Mosquitos. Poison Ivy. Bees and wasps. Snakes. Spring. Gotta love it.
