cold slowly bending
the spring silent manifest
accepting the fate
Plenty of snow/ice around here, however, I can feel spring is coming. We had a warm-weather this long weekend, perfect for a stroll by the river. This week’s theme for Tanka Tuesday is Transitions. Well, winter to spring transition is always welcome!

Love the picture and the poem, Elizabeth! I don’t experience winter or spring where I live, but I feel for those of you enduring the transition between the two. 🙂

It is indeed a slow bending, but spring will win out. Eventually.

Yep, slowly but surely! Mother nature is a little peeved with us so one day it’s 28 degrees, the next 59. 🙂

I’m so ready to transition to spring, Elizabeth. It was 50 degrees yesterday, and today, it’s 24 with snow flurries. LOL! ❤
