An anatomy of reticence to allow ones heart to play again in three concise verses.
What a wicked game our past amour has played with us as we age and opportunity becomes scarce.

A tuneful and fine write Fay. I might sing it, but the other poets throw dirt at me if I do - literally?! heehee.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Good Evening FAY ~ You have presented us a challenge because Spring is a paradox ! Gentle as a LAMB but fiesty as a LION ! When one considers the enormity of the transition from the DEADNESS of WINTER (especially when blanketed in SNOW) to the VIVACITY of SPRING ~ SPRING has to be a very assertive Season. The Snowdrops have pushed their way up through the stubborn sod ~ only to be greeted by snow & ice ! The iced vines KNOW that they are the harbinger of a FRUTY vino tinto in Autumn ~ AMEN !
Love the last line: *Cold it may be ~ but Spring knows its Duty*
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 💚💚💚

Yes, we trust Spring knows. Should we go by our diaries - Spring begins around March 21st \'officially\', so mine says.
Meanwhile - cheer up folks, it\'s till Winter! I\'m no help at all sometimes! heehee.
You have some things worse on the coasts though, I realise. I\'m inland, and sometimes says \'Snow? Where?\' when others have about 6 foot if it!

Oh what a superior final line. Sgt Major Nature commands his bulb forces \"c\'mon me hearties - up and at \'em.... you ain\'t gonna let no shivvering breeze keep you in your beddie bies now are ya...... Lance Corporal Crocus.... show \'em \'ow it\'s done lad!\"
I saw my first daffs yesterday in Cheltenham amid a lawn of crocus in purples and white.... oh springtime where art thou my lovely?
Well if spring gets washed out we shall have the delights of your words to warm our hearts i hope.

ANGELA HERE - Thanks FAY a challenging Photo & Poem. A Friend of ours from the (East Coast Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen) gives talks on their work - entitled *The Price of Fish & Chips* ! This is something we forget as we enjoy our *Cod \'n Chips \'n Mushy Peas* Angela & I have just had that but having heard Bob\'s talk the College Seniors Club we never complain about the PRICE and would pay double for the fish ! The *PRICE* is the Hardship & Injury & even Death sufferead every Year by the DS Fishermen ! Their Pay & Return is relatively low and their health in their (short) Retirement is often impaired. Your elegant (as usual) Poem is an excellent tribute to those who battle every day (especially in Winter) with the Wind & Waves to secure our FISH SUPPER - wherever we my be in the UK ! In our local Restaurants Brian & I regularly choose SEA BASS perfect in Texture & Taste when POACHED ~ AMEN Thanks for caring. Please check *IT SNOWED TODAY* - THANKS !
BLESSINGS & Peace & Joy
Love Angela & Brian 💛🤍💛🤍💛

Poetry themed on the sea is always well received , isn\'t it Fay? This one is especially so, highlighting fisher-folk.
I\'ll try to stay dry as I read.

Yes the stirrings of Spring are around us, the daffs are out, the birds are nest building and new life will soon be upon us. Great write Fay.

It is definitely the image of daffodils that form the catalyst for thoughts of spring. A fine positive poem from your quill Fay.

ANGELA HERE - Good Evening FAY ! For Me the transition from Winter to Spring (in the UK) is the most dramatic of the four Annual Seasonal Changes. In the Countryside Nature moves from Barren to Bounty - from Death to Development - from Freezing to Freshness - in essence its all about S * X !
Love the shape of the Poem - reminded Me of BLUEBELLS harbinger of Late Spring / Summer ! Thanks for sharing a lovely glimpse of Sister Spring and an antidote to the recent Drizle - Damp & Darkness even in Sunny Essex. Thank GOD that Spring is already Springing - AMEN !
Blessings & Peace & Joy now that Spring has Sprung !

Cor! I wish.... even the wading birds round here have got their wellies on..... there\'s nothing doing here \'cept wait for fair weather to repair those windblown fences.
It was your 4th line which \'got\' me. You won\'t do much driving around here unless you have a tractor beneath you... everywhere is flooded.
Pushing all that to one side though, I do like your poem encouraging spring.... i can see daffodils in my minds eye.

These are lovely words consigning a humane message to each reader.
Sadly though, we are not the first generation to express such a desire. Those who went before us have been ignored by and large, and we too shall largely be ignored. But the message is wholesome and true and we must continue and encourage future generations.
A great poem from you today Fay with much wisdom and support here amid folks who are used to using their mind. Still so many would prefer the sword oft encouraged by traditions of so called religious fervour.
