I Write - Decade Edition - Roaring 20's

New Life Blossoms

The tight fist of cold, frigidness loosens
The silent skies, once empty,
Now erupt with delighted chirps
As birds flit through fragrant air
And balance within flowering trees.
Squirrels scamper, rabbits hop
Over the once covered white landscape
That has now turned a verdant, lush green
Flowers pop with colour.
Bees buzz lazily from one to the next
I slip out of my house wearing no jacket
I pull in deep breaths of fresh air
Knowing my allergies will flare up
But for now I am just happy
To escape the confines of my house
And step into the wonderland
That is my awakening backyard.
