waves of dreams begin
surrender a midnight sigh
pining for month’s end
uncouth with gelid moments
warmth of spring beckons me close

Up to the 50’s today… but the ground is still covered in snow and ice.
Might get a chance to finally take a walk outside without the weather being below 32 F.
Really am looking forward to some spring to go along with the sunshine.

I’m pining too, but don’t want to get too invested as March can be so fickle here. Beautifully written Eugi. The image is incredible.

Yes, indeed, Sadje! It’s been very cold in my area but nothing compared to what others are having to endure. I’m glad you liked my poem.

I know there is a cold wave in many places. While these weather conditions are going haywire due to climate change, many still refuse to recognize it as such.
