Spring sneaks in on little fox feet
greening the mountain while the world sleeps.
Reach
Leafing branch reaches into spring
towards summer and shade.
Succulent Rose
Perfection appears
in a tangle of winter’s residue.
Forsythia
Before the sky is reliably blue
before the fields have greened
forsythia champions Spring.
Other Side
Eternal is the longing to be on the other side.
Wanderer
At the edge of the apple grove the spring comes above ground
and wanders across the meadow laughing in delight at the change of season.
