A justified ranting, if ever.....

Spell Of Spring

Having had enough cold and wet days
We're ready to enjoy outdoor warmth
The kind we've dreamed about for
All those miserable months of Winter

Our answer is Spring with a capital 'S'
Along with dreary days we're tired of
Grammarians trying to change the way
We spell the names of the four seasons

In only days we will welcome Spring
With all its freshness and beginnings
A new start to bring us more warmth
And outdoor activity with our friends

In the gifts of Spring how could they
Attempt to relegate these to a word
Unfamiliar and without imagination
Taking away its rightful capital 'S"


F William Broome 2008

Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter
North, South, East, West
I'm too old to change.
Good write.
Looking forward to the warmth, too.

By the time the huge mounts of snow are melted, it will be winter again here, Unless it does come in with a capital S, Blessings!

You always write with such beauty William. This poem caught my eye. So did the message. More...More...More...

Spring (the season) SHOULD be captitalized - it's birth! Renewal! Redemption from the dead of Winter. You know? Let it SPRING forth! (The only thing I don't want Springing forth is severe weather ... but living in Texas, we get that year 'round, worse in Spring.) Excellent write, Bill.

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

Supposed to be in the 80s tomorrow and near 90 by Friday ... NUTZ!!
