Sparkling eloquence and your
Sparkling eloquence and your signature wit (Rock'n that green!) make this the perfect celebration. Yes, it did feel like a lifetime of "too many/ snowy cold iced/ shiftings to arrive." You brought the feeling of renewal to life.
All the midwest snow melted
I watched it, big flakes almost covering cars. This is it! Spring has sprung!
Being a writer of science
Being a writer of science fiction, are you familiar with James Tiptree, Jr.? For reasons I cannot explain, your poem reminded me of Tiptree's story, "The Last Flight Of Dr. Ain." Your poem, which is beautifully colorful, set me to thinking and my warped brain went to Dr. Ain's last flight.

Thanks, I did not know she had passed away. When Tiptree suicided, I did not know that either.
