Spring’s love

Sun, soil, sky, and bees /

An Alchemist’s taste of Spring: /

Blueberries return.

Donut Do not

Raccoon’s arrival. /

Donut know he’s being watched. /

Sweet Spring on a string.

Rhymes with orange

He bickers and whines. /

One is eight or nine. /

One wears a red tie.

Tall tale

The gravedigger says, /

As his needling wife’s unearthed, /

“It’s all a big yarn.”

“Water flower”

Water flower

White Iris petals /

Folded by the falling Spring /

Rise to catch the rain.

The Park

Spring strolls through the park. /

Shaking green from her sleeves and /

Color from her eyes.

Will we…

Will we leave them tools? /

Or will we leave them burdens? /

“Breeze”

Breeze

Life for all its faults /

Hangs like a Spring water drop — /

Waits for a freeing breeze.
