Almost Spring

Breathe.

Breathe.

Fill yourself
with the smells of Spring.

Become so light
you feel
as if
you can
fly.


     I was listening to music on my walk this morning and there was a phrase, "good things are coming your way."  It made me consider the good things that might happen to me today.  So here is your poetry challenge, make a list of good things that might be coming your way.  Can you use your list to write a list poem, or pick one thing and write about that.  Have fun thinking of good things.

  1. As usual, Joy, great stuff! I really needed this poem today (you have no idea). Your website is a wonderful little pick-me-up every day.

  2. I had a great visit with a writer friend today and at the end of the visit, she gave me a plant to bring home. It was a spectacular spring day with a nice breeze and not too hot. Yes, I believe I have material for a poem. 8-) Thanks for sharing yours.

    1. Hey, Rosi,
      As my eyes frequently do, they trick me. I read --mice breeze--and I'm thinking about a story about a mouse who gets lost in a breeze. Thank you for the inspiration.
