From March through to May
farewell hard frost, mists and storm;
welcome spring’s on its way.
Bye to sky’s steel grey!
Now freezing rain becomes warm
from March through to May.
Hail, lengthening day,
dark nights no longer the norm!
Welcome spring’s on its way.
Sun, slip in that ray
through the shutters each morn
from March through to May
so that each new day
makes us all glad that we’re born;
welcome spring’s on its way.
Hear now what I say: seasons reform, don’t conform.
From March through to May welcome spring’s on its way.
Another villanelle on the subject of Spring, this time the five tercets are in senryu form and the final quatrain written out as a couplet.
What a joyful poem Chris. It is true, seasons do not conform. Here , for example we haven’t seen Spring at all. It is full summer!!🌞
