SPRING

by Rosetta Monteforte Racalbuto

Once again Spring
has been painted
by the sublime artist.
The green jonquillas,
the tender violets,
the first rose buds
are sprouting
in the green medeaws.
Sweet buds,
almond petals,
cover the trees.
The blue sky
reflects on the sea
where a light breeze
caresses the waves
that like happy children
chase each other.
The splendor
of this painting
inundates, illuminates
and sweeps away
the clouds accumulated
during the long winter,
making the joy to live
return.
