Buttercups

So many come blossoming, 
verily so many merrily 
so many! under the high-
spirited sun, opening 
a host of yellow. Nine, 
ten, three dozen blooms, 
now hundreds casting off 
the old lapsed minutes 
the months of cold – 
joking high-spirits
so sinuous on thinnest 
green stems – this very
morning so many!
