The First of April

the first of april looming over the horizon one step away from the coming summer, with a spring that will zoom through quicker than you can say the word quick & we’re standing on the sidelines in our t-shirts & vitamin d-soaking skin with all the sun worshipers awaiting the coming of their fiery burst of amazement & all the water worshipers ready to wade for months & submerge themselves in the cleansing moisturizing of the earth’s embracing liquid force, right before it all begins to fall in on itself again, when autumn brings the death of leaves & the death of flies, to satisfy me.
