I wanted to die
buried in the earth
to think, a longer day
like spring
can signal the death of you and me
because winter has claimed me
and no new shoot rose from my being
I wanted to die
buried in the earth
to think, a longer day
like spring
can signal the death of you and me
because winter has claimed me
and no new shoot rose from my being
It is late in coming
hillsides abstract themselves
with bold blocks of colour
subtleties disappear
a blooming, shadows defined
sun pouring – rain shining
lambs prancing and playing
like new leaves experimenting
with their colourshop of saturated greens
mountains still shining white
snow melts and journeys down
rocks baring their souls at last
and the waterfalls are gushing
the smell of short nights and daffodils …
spring has sprung
like a jack in the box
I breath it in
