Spring senses

Filed under Poetry
|

smells of new death

from buds falling from trees

the soft kiss on your neck

from the cool warm spring breeze

new green sprouts

are stretching out of their shells

and the air smells of soil

tulips and may bells

the welcoming wind

strokes cotton from branches

and brings it down slowly

much more welcome than snow.

the mist of another

drizzling spring rain

mixes with the chirping of birds singing:

they have come again.
