Spring Surprise

By Carol Tuesday, April 07, 2009

 

Spring Surprise

 

So many

Endless days.

Gray drear,

Cold like a blanket around me.

Then,

A flash of red at the feeder:

Springtime visitor,

Blue ceiling,

Green floor,

Another flash of color! A blossom?

Oh wait. Don't get too excited.

That unfolding sparkle of color

Heralds not the oncoming pleasures of Spring,

But the inevitable sorrow of

Migraine.

so true. my head is foggy and in a vice, behind the eyes are throbbing, - - actually my entire head is throbbing, painful, my stomach so upset. I get migraines horrifically at this time of year. Standing up is pure hell, stretching is even worse. The pain is especially bad in Spring not sure why ....
