April Afternoons

 



MorgueFile by GaborfromHungary



 

wait, spring will find you

look for emergent grubs under the underbrush

when newly hatched birds

are hungriest

 

or motes that dance on

pale afternoon light

through slanted windows

 

its warmth teaches

glimmering seedlings to push

through dirt and claim their spot

 

advancing spring claims its horizon

shadows thicken

the gloaming finds us both

in its gentled hand

a tinkle of glasses marks a win at cards
