Comment from Aiona

Excellent

I like this poem because, even without the picture that was chosen to accompany it, I can visualize it easily in my mind due to the word choice. I love that this poem captures a moment in time -- that squelchy mushy period after freezing cold weather, where things aren't quite warmed up yet, but it's messily getting there.

Your poem has me longing for spring. Around here all the snow and ice is gone and the days are getting lighter and warmer. I feel like doing a jig, but I'm in a wheelchair. Thanks for the happy poem.

I am pleased to know you also long for Spring, and my poem gave you cheer. Our snow is gone, too, but the cold air lingers.

I thought your poem captured that in between moment when winter fades and spring starts waking up. I can almost feel the chill leaving the air! Love how you say so much with just a few words. Beautiful work!
