THE IDES OF MARCH

Spring’s Quiet Return

Softly, the earth exhales again,
A silver thaw beneath the skin of snow.
Roots whisper secrets through the rain,
Calling green from depths below.

Morning loosens winter’s hold,
Light spills longer on the day.
A timid sun, no longer cold,
Coaxes sleeping seeds to stay.

Branches sketch in tender hue,
Blossoms tremble, bright and new.
Robins stitch the sky with song,
As if they’ve known all along.

Puddles cradle clouds that pass,
Wind combs laughter through the grass.
Every bud a promise made,
Every shadow gently swayed.

Hope, once hushed by frost and night,
Finds its voice in growing light.
And hearts, like fields, begin to sing—
Awakened by the touch of spring.
