black against sorrow
fluttering wings hold her still
elusive shelter
foam bubbles scatter
thumping tar paper roof sags
relentless gray sky
Green shoot extending
pulled by sun rays and soft earth
-a young spider spins.
water droplets cling
tenderly embracing sun
web sags in the heat
careless, laughing child
gossamer torn asunder
dewdrops fall to earth
daylilies sprouting
winter is still in my heart
though cold days are gone
pulsing verdant child
swaddled in bright foliole
naked to the sun
grey skies give way to
yellow forsythia buds
fallow hearts burgeon
My door opens fast
It hits the springy stopper
Boi-i-i-ing!
Tender tulip shoots
Yearning upwards, flash of red
Spring's first harbinger.
