I long for the spring
the lengthening of the days
and the warming sun.

its sunny down south.

In these dismal days
of central heating, my thoughts
turn to the summer.

Cold wet and windy
The spectre of winter lurks
it’s time to wrap up.

Enough already!
Winter’s tendrils holding fast,
bring me some sunshine.

Long snow-lined hedgerows
stand proud in the warming sun
seeing off winter.

Winter lingers
Reset the fireplace
mothballed until next winter
snow and ice return.

Emma’s legacy retreats
normal life resumes.

Winter in Spring
Wind-sculpted snow drifts
soften a harsh urban hill;
children on sledges.

Pitching

From the south, Emma,
east wind from Siberia;
Bristol snow pitches.

In Bristol and for about a 30 mike radius, the word pitching is used instead of settling. I love the word.
Storm Emma is a low pressure storm which is bumping into the Siberian high that is sitting over Europe. Result…snow…yay.
