A Gift Of Spring Poem by douglas lewis

A Gift Of Spring

Rating: 4.5


It snowed today.
Not the snow of white
But a drift of petals pink
Like a flight of pillow down.
Each soft palm,
Landing on my soul.

I like the sound of this poem. The lilt of the words very much has the feel of the tiny disintegrating blossoms of a fruit tree on sunny spring day with a gentle breeze. It is soothing and calming. Until the petals land on the soul. Sorry, for me that's an overused and hackneyed poeticism that comes quick to hand but needs to be rejected just as quickly for something as equally real and palpable as the petals. YMMV.
