A glimpse of spring--By Joan McNerney--United States

A glimpse of spring

shy blue morning
black trees etch sky

children skipping
over puddles

bramble on snow
soft birdsong

listening to water
race downstream

winds gently kiss
my forehead

grass shoots push
through first thaw

Joan McNerney’s poetry has been included in numerous literary magazines and anthologies such as Moonlight Dreamers of Yellow Haze, Seven Circle PressDinner with the MuseBluelineHalcyon Days and Poppy Road Review to name a few.
