spring forth

split rail fence
showering redbud blossoms
dogwoods dapple clumps of white
and serviceberry reminds
the ground is unthawing
and we can bury the ghosts of winter
before we sew the next row of being
the leaves spread and stretch
at alarming rates
of positive feedback fervor
the thirst is strong
and the birdsong grows
this vision of grandeur and pulsing life
returns in bounds of wanderlust and dripping mouths of nectar
insatiate me sweetness
greedily lapping up the luscious fruit of rebirth
the seed of truth is planted upon my soul
and the beauty of soothing color showers my wanting eyes
