Notes About The Poem

Poets Pulse

Weepy and willowy
   purple and greening…

Green and purpling vines,
Landowners between the lines.
Beyond the willowing pines,
Spring’s surplusity sublime.

Weepy and willowy
   purple and greening…

Conifers a leap, in front of creek,
reminiscent-flooding was not meek.
Caught in my wide eye that week —
the bubbling serendipitous freak.

Weepy and willowy
   purple and greening…

Wraparound fence a lá wisteria blooms.
Honey and carpenter bees, hornets zoom,
‘round about its heady-cocktail’d perfume.
All aboard the buzz of springtide costume.

      Weepy and willowy
   purple and greening
Spring is a-leaping and lording
raising a poet’s pulse, an unpreventable affording 
of contentment—
  sickness of singing feathers, courting
     unforgettable fetters
        of magical colors, supporting

one’s cause for rhyming
   hypnotic, its timing…

You have demonstrated how, so poetically, poetry drags 'the pulse' out from hibernation. Sometimes in winter we forget that we have one. Lovely write, Kim. Kudos, Gershon
