Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Flora is always welcome after Aquilo's icy blasts.

Sweet Spring

by HarryT

 
A warming sun's gentle gaze
Melting winter's icy grip
Sleeping earth begins to stir
Tapestries of greens emerge

Trees, once naked in the cold
Now dress with leafy finesse
Branches lift towards heaven
Homage to Flora's sweet kiss

Air, iced by Aquilo's breath
Now whispers nascent desire
Birds return from places south
Chirping tunes that inspire hope

Season of burgeoning birth
Welcome, you enchant my soul
