Early Bloom
rains waken these hills,
snowy crust melts, creek rises,
brown banks drink sweet water.
maple twigs swell,
green stems break loose earth,
small ferns start their climb,
tulip bulbs waken below mulch.
robin calls above cedar fence,
wrens carry straw, weave nests,
geese steer north above river.
light lasts later; lambs bleat,
lilac scent rides these winds,
world wakes, turns green again.
