Lure of Spring

Spring rain
Flings like seeds at my window
	In the dawn, Awakening

Auburn horses neighing from the barn

While Gold Finches are scarred lemons
Half-ripe
Filling a bush, Singing

Release me
		
Leaves of trees budding
Clenched baby fists holding away the cold
Lime glow

Its own light		mint

A man walks with pail and pole to the river
	For the little fish that shiver
		In the last splashes of silver coins

Casting a lure of first light.
