Contest: Ashton Drake's 2010 "Spring Has Sprung" for 16" Delilah Noir

(Did not place an award, but was fun to make in celebration of Spring)

Spring Fling

From the cold Winter depths 'neath a blanket of snow, vast slumbering seeds, bulbs, and buds start to grow

at the first hint of warmth as the sun starts to climb in the sky each day, higher, staying longer each time.

All creatures, now stirring, to see such blue skies, rub the long winter sleep from their color-starved eyes;

with birdsong and whispering breeze all around, I gingerly tread o'er the wakening ground

filled with wildflowers, brilliant, the trees laden pink, or purple or white, countless blooms as I blink.

With bated breath, wonder, the sun on my hair, I sigh, near to tears, from the long winter bare;

such Promise, such Energy, Life springing forth, and for a duration no cold from the North!
