    Shrinking away from our dreams

    It comes alive with the brutal first steps of spring
    United in promises and predictions the forgiven heralds sing.
    Those modest winter whispers coloured in,
    Private dreams intensified by budding ecstatic voices.

    But last summer’s memories blind us to new choices
    We cannot greet what we await while fearing to open our eyes.
    Still, the blame is never ours to claim,
    As time ticks by, and clouds rearrange the skies,
    We ask in weary voices,
    When do promises turn to lies?
    Isn't it pretty to think so?

    Am not at all sure I can interpret this but I love the confident mastery of your craft.

    I haven't posted much here, but I have to thank you twice now for your kindest of comments.
    Somehow you always manage to find an encouraging thing to say, though, I'm far from mastering any craft just yet.
