Spring Comings

the spring rains have come 
with the promise of cleansing and rebirth
striking the earth with a   slap
resuscitating the bed of worms

the air itself becomes  comes
thickens with longing   scrubbed
and beaten to rosy-cheeked perfection

tulips  open
gateway blooms, tender, simpering
their birth a wonder
an opening squall 
from the extended excess 
of eternal life

these small beatings
thrashing's, tearing's bring forth
the red, pink and peach
of a tulip morn

upon such gentle fragility
upon the ever fleeing stasis of
birth, bloom and death
we all reform

coming
in ecstasy
