Come melt me,
thaw me, lip me
with your sips of sun
dissolving snow.
O light of March
dear equinox
come melt me.
let me bubble
throw my socks.
Dance me, lull me
let me grin when
faced with sun,
come melt me, sing.
Sounds of Spring by Franz Stuck
Today at World Poetry Day Grace is hosting the Quadrille at dVerse with the word melt. Seems such a great word for spring.

Singing the song of spring…beautiful… 🙂
Join us… 44 words using the word melt.
Will try… it would be fun..thanks for the invitation… 🙂
Oh Joy!!!! I certainly shall join in this dance….I’ve been singing I’ll Stop the World and melt with you….since I read the prompt word. Happy to join and melt with spring and vernal equinox.
Good lord, I love that. I could just drink that up every single day until spring finally gets here.
Gorgeous! Happy spring to you!
See. Super sexy. 🙂
“lip me
with your sips of sun” … I love this part. Also “Let me bubble through my socks.”
In the last stanza, though, I dare you to add a couple of parentheticals:
“Dance me, lull me
let me grin(d) when
faced with sun,
come melt me, sing(e).”
Love the parenthesizes especially the sing(e)
Spring is truly a hearty dance. Well captured here, Bjorn!
Spring has not yet revealed her petaled beauty here in the Rockies so your poem fuels my fire to see her joy. It is a gem sparkling in the warm sun.
I love it when you used up all our Quadrille words ~ I am singing along with your melting verses ~
Well played Bjorn ~
Love that line about melting through your socks, mainly because it really makes you think… what might this mean? Like it.
Very vibrant, I wanted to spin like the ladies on the picture 🙂 Extra pluses for the socks, my husband approves, he hates the things!
You capture the magic of spring in this.
I see you’ve worked in all the Q prompts! I like that! …sips of sun dissolving snow…Yes, it is time for Spring! 🙂
“lip me
with your sips of sun
dissolving snow.”
**fans self**
holy.cow.
It starts out quite sensual and then leaps into a frenzy of spring fever! So cool!
how absolutely joyful and luscious
Lovely, joyful expression.
Oh so lovely! This is my kind of joyful dancing!
Glad to read this light-hearted, joy-filled poem from you… Like how you incorporated other quadrille word prompts too!
Deliciously Springy.
Now I want to throw MY socks. Alas, it snowed last night, so my feet would get too cold.
This is beautiful. Spring feels like hope to me, that it can melt all things cold and restricting, snow and burdens. That may be expecting too much, but at least there are fresh blooms to admire 🙂
Spring has catapulted all the poets as “melt” led most to thawing, dancing, & the fecund frenzy of rebirth coupled to the exit of old man winter (good riddance for now). So sad that a new terrorist attack has twisted our focus & attention this morning to Belgium.
“lip me with your sips of sun”… I’m so ready for spring and summer. Beautiful – and yes, tinged with sadness as Belgium seems to be this crazy world’s next victim –
…Brussels, I mean
Spring is here, eh?
I tried to read the poem that you linked up, but the link seems to be wrong… I can link up a correct poem for you if you like.
Yes, that would be great. 🙂
I tried linking up another poem, do check if it works. 🙂
Gleeful joy at coming of spring. Loved it!
What a beautiful way to welcome the spring! Lovely 🙂
Lovely, Bjorn!
Spring is a madcap dance of joy, zest and renewal.
Happy poem – dare I say joyful?
You’ve captured that effusive throwing off of the last vestiges of winter in this sun dance in dissolving snow … a joyful rollicking whirl.
