Persephone awoke from dreamy slumber,
shaking sleep from her vaporous aura.
Embracing the earth, removing the umber,
of winters long dead, drab plethora.
Descending on a southern breeze,
omnipotent goddess embracing the sun.
Liberating spring with magic keys,
her arcane debut is just begun.
Reincarnation of natures essence,
resurrected at the vernal equinox.
With tears of gentle rain from whence,
the vaunting secrets she unlocks.
Changing the earth into an Eden,
days conjured by her compassion.
Turning all austere, green again,
turning skies blue that once were ashen.
With summer solstice on the horizon,
her departure looming imminent,
she gathers her gossamer wings upon,
the south wind from which she was sent.
