Seasonal Woes
A poem about the feeling associated with a dragging winter.
I await the return of flowers,
awakened by soothing, reassuring showers.
The showers I endure are hot,
in my head, I cannot
wait any longer for spring's sunny powers.

Book Club Challenge Winners
This Challenge was particularly enjoyable for us as judges. It allowed us to sit around and discuss our own books that we cherish, the ones that changed us. Was it because they were perfectly written? Or because it was the book we needed at that point in our lives? And what does perfectly written even mean? For whom is it perfect? And, being big readers, as so many of our Creators are, we know that the more you read, the more deeply you are affected by all sorts of books, and suddenly you are thrown this way and that, moved like a leaf on a stream by all the incredible books you read, and it's hard to pick just one book.

When I lived in New York, I felt the same way waiting for spring. Very nicely expressed in a limerick.
Paints a beautiful picture of the anticipation for the arrival of spring...👌👌
Just a little longer now... The cats and I are hanging in there too.
