Your personification is fantastic. I was drawn into the drama of your words from the beginning as you built up hope for the climax of the coming of spring. Wishing you well in the contest. I think this is a winner.

That's lovely, and they're saying by the weekend we might have a couple of spring like days. I wish it really was returning. Good luck in the contest.

This is a well written piece which certainly fulfills the writing prompt expectations. The image is lovely, and the rhyme scheme is not hackneyed. Well done!
