after months of darkness
shivering under winter’s harness
hope blossoms in the trees
spring wafts on the breeze
as she transports her flounder
back to where she found her
beached by a turbulent wave
floundering in a sandy grave
she rescued Neptune’s daughter
and kept her in a globe of water
until after months of darkness
they awoke to spring madness

This has a tinge of cabin fever to it. I really like it.

The flounder is perfect! We flounder through the seasons like a fish out of water. 🙂
