Resplendent Once More
Resplendent Once More
The trees have had
A collective memory lapse
For their bony arms
And gnarled, arthritic hands
Reach, beseech the sky:
Why have you forsaken us?
We are cold and naked
Where is our leafy finery?
Shall it ever be spring again?
They forget
That they’ll soon be bedecked
With cloaks of green
And while
I know how they feel
That is not
What shall make me
Resplendent once more
