Awaken

February 2009 002 

Awakening to the sounds of spring,
Birds twittering in the trees,
Awakening to the signs of spring,
Daffodils raise their joyful heads,
Awakening to the touch of spring,
Soft, green grass beneath my toes,
Awakening to the smell of spring,
Fragrant breezes brush against my face,
Awakening to the feel of spring,
The warm sun shines and breaks the hold,
Awakening from the cold of winter,
As creations beauty again unfolds.

My favorite line...

The warm sun shines and breaks the hold,

I can see winter's cold embrace falling away.

"Soft, green grass beneath my toes" I really like that and look forward to it soon :-) I've been crazy busy lately.. it's nice to get a chance to come over and see what you've been up to. I've missed your "stuff" :-)
Blessings to you..
