Now, spring manifests itself, After the autumnal degradation Of this forsaken existence; Thus, crisp trimmings And youthful buds of pink Restore the erstwhile bounty That winter snuffed out with force; Yet, the obdurate heart still yearns For the specific, soulful essence That was inevitably lost-- The one, so valiantly sensient During last year's awakening; Truly, not every little thing Could be effortlessly replaced With yet another item of gold. "Old And New" Nivi , here's a rendition re your prompt, "Spring after long days of autumn". Hehe. #OldAndNew #nivi #diwa #yqbaba
