Second poem of the day, I could not resist the dverse prompt about Spring, which means play, gardening, general silliness coming as a consequence of long Wisconsin winters, and… wordplay! Amy

We know that SPRING is not far behind
and we’ll Soon bitch about sPiRitING away
A/C to ward off intenSe PeRspirING

How very clever! How true we wait for each season only for it to hit us and we find ourselves having something to complain about 🙂

A fun read as the weather is always changing as mother nature has her own agenda and we are always wanting a nicer day!

I like the way you’ve strewn spring throughout, almost as if flowers slowly bursting from the ground.
