The Promise of Spring

A seasonal poem about the beauty and fleeting nature of spring.

Spring has come,

quick and sure

When the sun comes back,

and the petals turn

So long you wished

for those bright days

Since the dreary winter,

they seemed to fade

Beauty is for all to see,

but only for those who look

Flowers given by a loved one

make your heart a little shook

When the dreary winter reaps again,

to take all that is loved

Remember these delightful days,

and that spring will come

soon enough.

Hi! My name is Lydia Drescher, and I am a sophomore at Timberline and a reporter this year. I have always had a passion for writing and connecting with people, which led me to join the pawprint. I lived most of my life in Seattle, Washington, and moved to Boise a few years ago. I’m excited to start writing and taking on sports stories within the school. I hope to learn more about interviewing and design this year. A fun fact about me is I am on the Silver Legacy Dance team!
