Warm Spring wind, Streaming past my vale in swirling crescendos Past the grey skies of the barren Winter's sorrows A refreshing breeze, Roaring past heaving branches in this new season's panorama From the sparkling seas, New life merging with the clarion winds over swaying trees and hillocks This symphony resounding in victory O'er the bleak wastelands of Winter's dominion May new love, like the Spring wind Glide and melt this Winter's heart that reigns in my being May her kiss forever free me from the bonds of yesterday's prison Like the sun warming the cold earth And her touch, like a breath of new life.
This is a poem I wrote some years ago while living in Florida.
