In the dark of night, with a cold
and chilling wind blowing rain against
the window pane we too easily forget
the sunshine days, the ones that start
before you rise and last right on
into the night. Today I saw the golden
tip of a daffodil shine like a candle
against the dark wet winter soil. It lights
the way for Spring, a beacon that beckons
the warmth of Summer and those long,
warm sunshine days.
