MY ATTEMPT AT WRITING POETRY: SPRING’S PROMISE

Published by New Worlds Unlimited in Mysteries of the Lyric World in 1988.

                     SPRING’S PROMISE

My breath frosts the winter scene from my eyes

As I peer out the bedroom window,

Trees bend their naked arms

As cold north wind gives them life,

The lawn, the hue of hay

Bristles with the wind,

I look to the future

When my world will once again fill with life,

I look to my wife round with life herself

And the sound of the promise of spring

Rings in my ears.
