In Anticipation of Spring

Entry

With trembling longing

I contemplate the falling leaves

Of autumn

twirling gently to the sodden earth

in golden cascades of red yellow and orange

With trembling anticipation

I await the wondrous budding

Of spring

arising in pink rose petals

like hair atop a glorious head

breaking through the carpet bombing

of a chemo blasted baldness

Dancing wildly with thick entangled curls!

Curls caressing the warm lavender Spring!

Ginan,
I know you with your huge sense of humor, soaking in an incredible responsible intelligence, not only for your society (your people) but for the humanity of the world.
Now IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m struck by your courage, so obvious through your trembling. IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m impressed how seamlessly you used soft metaphors and IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m happy to see that youÃ¢â‚¬â„¢re directing your creative energy to such an imagery that is so vivid.
Yes, the good news is coming soon with the colorful hurried spring.
