Spring Floods

As the Mother of all Mothers,
mixes yellow into blue...
Fahrenheit shall rise.
Hence forth, the snow melts...
Brings the ferocious waters.
Ownership nay!
She shall consume all!
Fastidious wench,
be gone again...
with the new season...
of the weddings.


I wrote this Feb. 2005, it is about Mother Nature turning the Earth to Spring and how she is in 
control of us and how hard she is to please, we are at her mercy until June comes and 
summer settles things down.  Judy Riley

I love how you give identity to Mother Nature and the strength you also allude to. The flow seems natural and unforced while the imagery is wonderfully clear. Great work. Michael
