Poem About Spring

Heads down, unaware of

things around

Going about our business

no time for gentle kisses.

The sun peaks through a crack

in a cloud

Reminding us to look up and

take a breath

And see what we’ve been

missing:

The renewal of life through

colors and sounds.

Are you looking?

Are you listening?

Poetry MeetUp. After reading several poems about spring,

were we challenged to write our own. We were given 5 minutes.
