Sporadic Spring
by Fritz-Carly Andre
Spring, how I’ve missed you.
How we’ve all missed you
Your rays of sun have begun to shine through the windows of the clouds
As your heat bathes us like water in a shower.
But Spring, you don’t seem like yourself
Are you ok?
You seem sick.
Your sun is not as constant as it usually is.
Why is that?
Are you in a state of sadness?
Your tears rain down on us in events of thunder and lightning.
I feel these tears against my window.
I smell the despair in the air.
You cry so much- the rain is in a constant battle with the sun
and I do not know which will be in control sometimes.
I understand your sadness.
Your whimpers work as waterfalls after hot days.
Other than sadness, you seem cold.
Your exhale causes snow to form
And negates the warm weather.
Green grass is turned white
As a testament to your shiver
Why is that?
Your sunny smile is missed Spring
As we enter the new season
I look forward to your bright rays shining over us again.
I look forward to no more of your tears of sadness
And your exhales of cold weather
Your sun is missed
I am eager to move past what this may be known as
A sporadic spring.
