Spring Cleaning

It is spring.

I look outside to see the birds wake with chirping voices,

Calling songs as warm and bright as the hours ahead.

I see the flowers shaking off their slumber,

Stretching in the early dawn to greet the day

Unfurling their leaves and straightening their stamen,

Faces turned upwards towards the sunlight.

 

It is spring.

I look inside to see the cobwebs that grew within me

blow away like flying kites in the breeze.

I see the darkness shrouded across my mind

Dissipate in the light that pours through my open window,

Revealing the cracked but vibrant wallpaper

That stretches around my very soul

To immerse myself in renewed creativity.
