Sometimes my life is full of strife

My pen lays flat; no words chitchat

It's hard to find peace in my mind

My garden's brown; lips hold a frown

What will it take to stop this ache?

That troubles mind; keeps words confined

.....

I step outside and let eyes glide

On melting snow reflecting glow

From sun rays' gleam see nature's scheme

To bring a change in winter's range

For though it's cold, new life is bold

Thick blades of green in garden scene

Reminding me no life is free

Of trials and tests or daily quests

Just like new sprouts, day in, day out

And soon I'll bloom; discard my gloom

And words will flow to paint a glow

End winter's storm as hearts grow warm
