Lady's Finger

beneath the ground
life in darkness slumbers
and snowflakes fall

vernal birth
amid death’s icy grip
the sun returns

and lady’s finger
gently stirring tender tip
of melting heart

for love to grow
when we know it
we sow the seed
nurture love and watch it feed

now in my heart
set apart by
the dart and bow
as shot by love in Cupid’s arrow
