Between Winter and Spring
Dirty snow
Disintegrates
Fragmented leaves
Trampled underfoot
All is dark and dead
Birdsong floats
Through skeletal leaves
Stirrings deep underfoot
Carry the promise
There is still more than meets the eye
You cannot see it yet
As the world takes its breath
Like your soul inhabiting
The space between winter and spring
All may seem dead
But look closer
Beyond sight
The swelling bud
Has something else to say
Feel life stir deep inside
The song within you
Is not over yet
Let the sunlight warm your heart
It’s time to come alive
