Dirty legs
Nothing brings forth Spring /
But buzzing and the hard work /
Of six dirty legs.

The Earth turns away /
Receding her face from light. /
Buds hold spring within.

Bagels
Some bagels are fresh. /
Others are moldy compost /
Rescued for repast.

Clang, clang
New engines, old cars /
Train clangs about its journey /
Rides a cloudy day.

Spring
Spring begins gray, /
Bleary eyes crusted with tears, /
Yawning into sun.
