Poet’s Corner: Spring Fling

The days have been so blustery,

and i just can’t take custody of Spring, elusive Spring.

So i thought i would just sit myself down

in my big back yard and plan myself

a fling-a Spring Fling.

i’ll invite a few friends,

all vaccinated of course,

and ask my country cousin to

bring his miniature horse.

i’ll ask K.C. and a few of her comrades to

play ole-timey music to help us all feel glad,

we’ll hope that elusive ole sun will come out

to dance about the day

in his lackadaisical way-

maybe we’ll get him to finally stay

for a while

and Spring will display her style

in the budding of trees and bright

tulips please! and laughter in the breeze!

The flowers will finally blossom the

colored birds sing,

Joy will be mine at the presence

of Spring

in my big back yard at my 

imagined fling!
