Anew and Anon

Spring, ripe and dulcet 
usher for the vines 
of mellow orchard 
green leaf perch bird chime   
thaws a winter gloom
         
Bane of snowbound
cladding doused in
red sunlight rays
sea salt tides rise
                  
Wild rose plot’s
vivid shades
signpost faith

A sprig
of fresh 

 mint
