Spring

This year,

Spring came in early February

Sun shining,

Trees blossoming before their time

Even though this probably means

Something is going wrong,

I feel at one with this mistake.

It feels good to know I am not the only one who gets ahead of myself.

I fell in love with a girl like Springtime once.

I admit it was far too soon.

I picked flowers from my garden

And brought them to her doorstep

But she never put them in water.

The buds died before they had a chance to bloom.

How ironic

That the rose colored glasses

Hid it all from me.
