finally

it was so wintery for so long.

i didn't blog.

it felt so wrong.

snow was here,

snow was there.

snow was even

in the town square.

snowmen and snowballs

made it fun at first.

soon that was over, though...

and then came the worst.

piled high,

day and night.

sometimes it was

quite a sight.

flowers were planted

and so was hope

i don't think i ever really

learned how to cope.

i waited and waited

and waited some more

sure that spring was

knocking on our door.

it was a long time coming

longer than i care to say,

but now i see spring everywhere

every

single

day!

terraces came back to town

all is green that was so brown
the ghost town days have gone away

hungarians came out to play!

tulips brighten every corner

there is no better street-adorner

wedding processions all through the city

grooms so smitten, brides so pretty
cafes are open, fruit abounds

laughter and talking

are the springiest sounds

the thing i missed the most last season

was enjoying an ice cream for next to no reason

fagyi is back, back in full swing!

is there anything better that announces the spring??
morning or midday,

cone or cup

any time, any place

just lick it all up.

the thing that is most nyiregyhaza,

the thing that made white feel so black

was the fountain i love, right by my house

BUT LOOK! the fountain is BACK!!

i heart spring in hungary.
