Spring Appearance
As daylight hours increase, and Winter forgoes:
The sun’s heat to release meltwater from the snow
Raising the lake until balance is established,
By output of water rushing to sea level.
Spring’s appearance stimulates reproduction,
Of survival and progeny continuation.
That boasts life’s colourful individuality,
As warmth engulfs perception of vitality.
Now is the time before the leaves appear,
To tap the Birch for its sap, sweet and clear
Of the fall conversion which assists to prevent,
Trees from freezing and deprivation of nutrients.
Soon to follow as the soil thaws and forest greens,
Morel pores sprouting beside decayed fallen trees.
And in the freshness of season sleepers awake to bloom,
While animals forage for new growth, to consume.
