I go out and wander amongst the trees

flowering spring pink white

the green of the grass tickling my tender wintered toes

fresh and new released from the constraints of woolens

I tell myself I am not sad

that spring brings good things and of course summer is there on its heals biting

to be released into the wild

the windows flung open breezes tussling

like children on the mats the potted hung pathos sways as if to music

and who am I to say what it hears

I know my ears have been rapt to the tumult of mind and matter

and are just being let loose to wander in the bright lights of early dawn once again
