Will winter melt away
In mists of springtime?
Shall February be but a thought,
Soon replaced with early March,
Forgotten in summer haze?
Too early, yet,
To think of fall or even
Contemplate July's sultry daze.
Late winter lingers
Like a lover's kiss,
Or Valentine's faded bloom.
The promise of the groundhog,
Sleeping still.

JaneAustenalmost 16 years agoI liked your inclusion of the four seasons in this late season thaw, and I found the ending to be beautiful in image ... a pleasure to read!
ScatteredShowersabout 20 years agoI am predjudiced against the word "Shall"
I had to force myself to read the poem after seeing that word and the first few lines felt like an overdramatic theatrical performance. Your ending was relevant, new, tangible.... it even made me go back and read it again with a more forgiving eye.
