Sounds of Spring
The duet of a garden's music in June,
afloat with all the season's notes can bring...
The milder one is where chant of orioles
join honeyed air's refrain
as dragonflies flip a spin to answer
the humming pampas on the lawn.
And how the mutter of a pond
swishes around Grandma's flower beds
where laughter wisps and sneakers squeak--
Then, the other one-- a more raucous tremolo;
loud chuckles of youngsters pitching
through hollers beneath white clouds
yelling away for a doughnut fete,
paired with alto voices of neighbors gabbing.
But no matter-- this garden is our magical place
to quench a thrill from romps
far beyond skyscape's tapestry
when hours wheeze by
into this rhapsodic spring - duet...
a cycle's buoyant grace pulsing on and on.
