Tame the Spring

Tame the Spring

We sit upon the deck
sipping coffee
looking into a cerulean sky
not a cloud in sight
delightful spring morn
facing the east
We welcome the day

Always a spring storm
enlivens our spirits
building in the high country

We watch the west
hopeful for a colorful sunset
would the dark clouds move?
Yes! heading straight for us
I feel a drop of rain

We face the north
the wind in our faces
dries our tearful eyes
We cry no more
only smiles now

We throw out assumptions
accepting the hard rain

Dear CJ,

Once the spring is tamed, the summer will run wild.

I love those spring storms ... I find the rain, wind, thunder & lightning invigorating!

Love & Light always and in all ways,
Joseph*

Ooooooooooooooooo... you got me, Dale... The recipe for excellent poetry is all here... you leave out 50% of what we're all burning to know and keep us with you through this intriguing scenario and day, from dawn to dusk and through all points of the compass... with wind and all shades of personal relationships and emotions thrown in for good measure. Yet you tell us... only less than half, methinks! After a day like this (I perceive), a good hard rain WOULD be refreshing as all amassed assumptions are thrown out, still none the wiser than at the beginning of the day. Love this! TY Kate xx
