Springtime Beauty

By Elexer

You are beautiful

With hair of 

An orange cream

Sweet delight.

 Mother of Springtime,

Sugar, and Pollen,

You brush your scents

Along noses.

You say, "hello",

Breeze-filled touch

Of lemon and ginger. 

Bringing us knew hope-

Knew wonders- about

The world.

You are beautiful

With our without 

Your exterior.

Spring Pick-Me-Up

by Elissa Rosenthal

You are not alone 
in this merry meet spring 
fairy tale,
where you fear about failure
with new beginnings. 

You carry a life of work
and willingness 
to improve upon 
your misgivings and mistakes. 

Look at the flowers budding 
around your shoulders,
waiting to bloom 
in delight.
