A Hope of Snowdrops
A hope, that spring will soon be here.
Like swords,
shoots pierce the frozen land.
Rising,
to make a stand.
A challenge,
to winter’s white.
Flowering,
little lanterns of light.
A hope,
of snowdrops delights.
Soon,
an end to the long cold nights.
Spring,
is within our sight.

A smile alights my face when I find the delicate snowdrop in our woodlands. Their green shoots are like little swords, breaking through the cold hard ground, challenging winter to a dual, making a stand and promising that spring will soon bring lighter warmer days.
