Renaissance....



At a very particular point in time,
The evidence is clear to be seen.
A precise and measured unfolding,
Life presents itself to the world.
An unravelling and first sighting,
Newness abounds in all its being.
Rebirth of this newly found faith,
Another seasonal renewal emerges.
In realizing that undeniable elegance,
Spring exudes signage of a renaissance.

  1. Dear Eileen
    I had the most wonderful surprise when I came home today.
    Your book arrived.
    I shall be reading your poems tonight before I retire for the night.

    Spring is my favorite season.
    I am always in awe of all the beauty 'that springs up around me'

    Love your poem.
