before the season

Posted on April 13, 2012 by Susan L Daniels

I am impatient
in love

just like that first yellow crocus
knows it is foolish
to open early
but still pushes
through the thin crust of snow

expanding eagerly
inside March air

clean & treacherous
as ice

About Susan L Daniels

I am a firm believer that politics are personal, that faith is expressed through action, and that life is something that must be loved and lived authentically--or why bother with any of it?

    Susan, I am completely not like this, but I know people who are. A delightful read.

    Thank you so much, Richard! I am not like that now, but in 1986 I certainly was quite the risk taker 🙂
