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’.

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!
