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
