Fresh crisp wind <br />caresses my face, <br />plays with my hair <br />as it cools me down <br />from the warm balmy sun. <br /> <br />My naked eyes squint <br />against the brightness of a new day- <br />A new season! <br />A feeling of hope and a fresh new life of wonder <br />fills me as childlike faith washes over me. <br /> <br />Playful, giddy tides of bright sun rays, <br />soothing songs of nature surrounds me. <br />Birds chirping overhead... <br />As I walk through the shade of ancient trees- <br />trees from seasons past. <br /> <br />The air is fresh and heavy with moisture, <br />All thoughts of hopelessness ascend... <br />Once again I am filled with the wonder of spring!<br /><br />Shelley L Baxter Stanley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-wonder-of-spring/
