Some bees feast among /
Spring flowers and fruit buds. /
Some feast on cat food.

Nine years ago
Eggs, age were hidden /
Nine years past, when both were young. /
Spring hides without end.

Possum handling
Possum in my hands /
Baby in the morning sun /
Embracing nature.

By the roadside
Scraped, by the roadside, /
Olde English brown malt liquor. /
Unopened Spring thirst.

Water bubbles
Upon the Spring petals /
New raindrops run and dangle, /
Nourishing old hopes.

Olympic rings
Golden, deep fat fried, /
Round signs of Spring — Onion rings. /
Olympic pleasure.

Into the Spring
Lift your hand sky high, /
A soft serve to the new Spring. /
Ice cream jockey rides.

Flames of green
Flames of green, come Spring /
Buds erupt: wild, jaunty things. /
Leaves no more unseen.

Buds
Early morning buds /
brave Spring’s light and cruel caress. /
Tomorrow blooms.

Thieves
A thousand thieves may /
rip the jonquils from the ground /
but they can’t steal Spring.
