Spring 2012 Started Out So Well.....

Sigh *

Dear Spring, 
we started out so well. 
 Everything was green, vibrant and healthy.
I looked forward to you, Spring, all winter long
and I gave you the gift of 50 new plantings.
Green, you did not stay with me
but left me for Brown. 
And Now, your freshly planted youth are dying 
 though I watered and tended.

Still... Spring, I long to spend time with you again.   

Let's try it again Next Year.

 Sigh *

It started out so well...
