One of those days

Posted on March 4, 2017 by Sue Vincent

There are days that hang in memory

Like the fine mist of morning,

Gilded by the risen sun.

Momentary splendours, full of light

Sun-kissed days, on hilltops touched with snow

But whispering of Spring

Snowdrops’ promise pledged beneath the trees,

Handfasted to Summer’s warmer glow,

The breeze a fanfare, laughing.

Today was such a one.

    Lovely imagery. Almost spring 💗 I’m writing a poem too right now about ‘the month in between’.

    Snow drops are my favourite flowers! I have had one of those days but for very different reasons 🙂

    You’ve got the “touch” or the “gift” or the “whatever-you-call-it.” You’ve just proved that today! Today was an indoors day for me, but I didn’t let it stop it from being one of those days. Your poem helped with that!

    As the weather in my neck of the woods is appalling today, your post was a welcome reminder of days to come… and bloody soon, please!
