The frost has left and
a fresh feel of warmth remains--
the world is reborn.

I lay in the grass,
woken by a golden sun
seeing Her at work.

Trees bear new blossoms,
animals shyly come out--
again She has come.

Birds hit their high notes,
a breeze tousles my loose hair--
the sky a bright blue.

Spring exhales deeply--
a flowery scent surrounds,
putting me at ease.

I love the imagery—the sight, the sound, I can see and hear it all. I love the title too. It's not a boring title like "The Spring".

Thanks! I was thinking that others would get tired of my nature poems. By the way, I was looking for your work, but has it been approved yet?

Beautiful personification. There are so many cliche'd nature poems out there, and you have done an exquisite job of keeping yours fresh and original.

I like the idea of spring exhaling - i think that's a great use of words! Very strong ending to a good poem!

I don't know. I've always liked other languages---you'll notice that my "Hanakotoba" and "Hitomebore" are Japanese words. Anyways, I looked on the site and there were a lot of poems called "Spring." I just wanted to be different.

Ya the no prob. I have a question though: why did you title it in Spanish instead of just calling it Spring?

I love this vivid, yet simple description. It really made me want spring. I liked how the whole poem seemed to be building towards the end, "putting me at ease."

 Nice job :)
