I will seek the lasting warmth of spring ______________________________________

Pollen-swirls have ringed around my crown: springtime sun is speaking through the sound of chirp and rustle — bark and wayward chime that scintillate between human designs. Shapes that sweat and toil — make, unmake shelters rough that shade and briefly sate murmur there — beyond reach of my ear when work is done, behind a thatched seal. Too long ago was my frail vessel shaped to revel in this newness, fresh partake of innocence of bloom and beauty crisp yet still, redemption sweet I now enlist: unloose me from these harsh-conceived bounds. All across the cobbled mess of town my spirit wanders far to yearn for warmth that dwindles not as emb'ring coals of hearth must ebb in wait for older branch to fall in order to rekindle brighter awe. ___ ![IMG_1672 (1).png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/d-pend/Eoc77GrZ9mq6Qe4sANW66omRgrQmi5WDyCjuQtYvZ6YQ6PsQhiTJ9858ZS9g8odDGvg.jpg)
