Spring at last, I see you smiling down at me
Amid a field of cherry and lemon tulips.
Oh, wondrous delight!
So pleasing to the slated gray
Winter's wrath stabbed ubiquitously,
A fork in fleshy earth,
Leaving scars only you can replace.
Dear spring, I love you!
Cherry lemonade~
Refreshment for my soul.

Here's my result:

a fork in fleshy earth - great line, and take on prompt.
An ode to Spring ... this is delightful.
I love the spring's appeal. You've written it well!
Cherry lemonade? That would be cherryade, then? :)
Another good one, Laurie.
Thank you... I guess you can tell I have spring fever.
Nice one, LK!
This is a wonderful prelude to spring, Laurie. So timely and universal..we are all ready now. I love what you did with this. Cherry Lemonade. This prompt stomped me but you took off with it. Kudos to you!
