Sun slices through silver snow
Gives way to a breathing green
A sigh
Of rose-petal relief;
Poor Jack Frost
Falls to his knees
With grief.

Frost screams
Claws clutching
Sun beams
Barely touching
Yet strong enough
And buttery so
Reveals bark
Rough
Slicing through
Silver snow.

A cracked egg peeps
A new breath
On fragrant winds blow;
Because the sun slices
Through silver snow.

The author's comments:
This is a poem I wrote for my English class, and the criteria was to create a "sound poem," one that sounds pleasant and reads almost like music. I wrote about the springtime, my favorite time of the year because it gives everybody hope that better things are to come.
