maple tree – Leaf And Twig

With All Blooms And Beginnings

first and most mysteriously comes
an internal expansion
that commands glorious opening

red pompoms
raised high in the deep blue sky
cheering on spring

home sweet home
the many duties
of the maple tree

snowing light
the maple tree’s
luminosity

never still
maple blossoms
dance through their days

While the garden is watered
I shelter with the maple.
