Word of the Day Challenge: Month

Image by Carol Collette

Maybe in

the very next second

or one minute from now

maybe in as little as in the next hour

or as long as one day away

or maybe in, you never know, maybe

in just  one more month

the world might  suddenly wake up

stretch out it’s  aching arms

wipe the frost from it’s eyes

crack it’s stiff and aching bones

and Spring to life

right before our eyes.

Paul Madeline. 1905
