Spring Poems 4: ”After the Winter,” ”Spring,” and ”Feuerzauber”

We end this month of Spring poems with poetry tinged with love, beginning with:

1) "After the Winter," by Claude McKay

2) "Spring," by Gerard Manley Hopkins

3) "Feuerzauber," Louis Untermeyer. A fitting poem with which to end our Spring poetry, a poem I wish I had written for my wife:

Aye, you are touched; your singing lips grow dumb;

The fields absorb you, color you entire ...

And you become

A goddess standing in a world of fire!
