She's Here: Spring
Her intoxicating fragrance
Heavily pregnant
With thinly veiled
Promises of seduction
Stepped into attendance with stealth
to herald her arrival
A stimulus that suddenly
heightened our intrigue
Rousing the body's senses to action
She enthralls when she finally
glides in
The mist at dawn her chariot
Magic wand at hand
Diffusing glistening beads
of dew about
To clease away seasonal
change's debris
Coaxing listless souls
out of stupor
Moistening and reviving
shrivelled parts
Dried out by winter's purge
She gifts all effete terrain with rebirth
At her prime she'll lay bare in fullness
The glory of her splendour afore us
An indulgent feast for the eye
Sends skin tingling euphoria
Rushing through the veins
Languid steps that she bolstered
to a spry leap into a frantic
trance dance of worship
The forbidden wilderness lambada
That raises the dust as earth awakens
In tune with a song from nature's own heart
Delivered with infectious
gleeful abandon
A song ever so delicately woven
Rhythmic chirping, bubbling
and even buzzing
On occasion timely punctuated
By drumming, pecking and whistling
United by love and a lust for life
nature's beings lay out at her feet
An endless carpet of song
in her honor
Spring is finally in our midst!
We shall rejoice in her deeds!
