Glimpses

Winter turned her face away

Glimpses of spring fill her momentary absence

Ominous dark clouds give way

Glimpses of rainbow sky promising beauty in the storm

Enticing the mind to forget that weeks of winter remain

First sprouts of hyacinth bulbs burst from the soggy soil

And daffodil leaves begin to form in anticipation

A glimpse of hope for future spring beauty

A momentary dream of fresh air gradually filling with sunshine and bumblebees

The rain downpours and darkens Daydreams of warm currents of air and that giddiness of spring fever quickly fades

Windswept back into dreary winter
