Description
ALIVE …. IN GREEN TIME
All those enduring tropic saunas or
The frosted kiss of arctic ice can’t know
The utter joy of watching winter fall
Asleep; surrendering to festivals
Where trees adorn themselves in emerald gowns
And blossoms crowns; where daffodils announce
They have survived to burnish earth with gold
When birds sing hymns to springtime’s life renewed
And withered dreams discover they might hope again.

In your "Alive" presentation; is the word "board" the proper expression or was it meant to be "bored"?

Please note the word bored is your word and was never used in my poem

You've said it so well. Springtime is such a gift after a long winter, and this year I thought it would never come! We're in Arizona now, totally missing the beautiful northern spring, but I'm imagining it, nonetheless.

Excellent stuff. The iambic works really well here to create a sense of surging rhythm.

She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies, And all that's best of dark and bright Meets in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellow'd to that tender light Which Heaven to gaudy day denies. ~ Lord Byron Byron has nothing on you my friend. The meter, the pacing, the imagery are all outstanding. I can't wait for your opponents to start criticizing Spring. {;->

spring is such a welcome time after the long, dark days of winter. You express that feeling beautifully here.
