Signs Of Spring. Poem by Michael Walker

Signs Of Spring.

Rating: 5.0


It is somewhat warmer inside now-
as I checked on the barometer today-
and my heaters are not always essential.
I don't think I will get pneumonia again
and I do not want to go back to that hospital.
I feel more alive and energetic now
although I was not lethargic in winter.
I can dress without a jersey, sometimes,
and my long black coat, outside.
There are fewer calls on the iPhone
thus more hours of silence at home.
My peach tree is wearing pink blossoms,
a sign of the seasons.

Michael, very nice! I can relate, soooo many of my friends has passed away, at times I feel like the LONE RANGER. My Christmas Card list gets smaller every year. But, I live on to write another poem.

That's how I look at it too. Try to write as many poems as possible. I have lost a few friends also.

Due to seasonal change, inside we find warmer. Seasons motivate life with great dignity. Peach and plum trees have pink blossoms and these motivate poetic mind. An excellent imagery is drawn in this poem...10
