Spring's Awakening
A harsh guffaw summoning the dawn,
a penitent crow caws.
Awakened by tremulous cheeps,
warbling and murmuring water,
the wetland emerges from sleep.
Leaves shadow trunks,
stippled with light,
spring’s exhaled by trees,
dispelling the big freeze.
A pool reflects new life.
Reeds shimmy in breeze-born
sojourn from winter’s slow denial,
uplifted by the sun’s face,
choking the river’s flow.
Brown mirror patterned by branches,
capillaries of light, reflected on the surface,
bleeding life into currents drawn from earth.
Spring sings in roots and births in the canopy.
Birds chorus allegro, frogs harmonize.
Dogs grow wild, enthused by butterflies
drifting in blossom-blown cacophony.
Life’s prophecy, fulfilled in a sigh.
