Simulacrum ... Finally

Today's word is "simulacrum" ... sim-yuh-LEY-kruhm ... a slight, unreal, or superficial likeness or semblance. an effigy, image, or representation. (dictionary.com)

Finally
Looking out the window,
The sun is shining down,
Spring has sprung around here,
Green has come from brown.

It is a simulacrum,
Of what is to come,
Once the temperature has risen,
And outside's the place for fun.

The last cold days are hardest,
To wait out in the house,
A few more days until we smile,
And no longer choose to grouse.
