By SHELIA BLAND
Goodbye Snow
Cold frigid windy winter
Goodbye
No more bitter biting and burning
Time now for winds to kiss and caress.
Snows melt with emotion
Discarding winter coats to go skinning-dipping
As gentle raining drops
Cascading water slides of wonder
Babbling as brooks
Riding the sloping curves and dips of earth.
Beaming sunbeams, once frosty
Now snuggle closer spreading warmth.
Hibernation takes a hiatus
Joints loosen, flex
The sky sings
Spring has sprung
