Spring High Jinks

spring high jinx

lusty sunbeams jive
 rowdy clouds do fandangos ~ 
  gusty winds kiss kites

ducklings surf the pond
 fuzzy goslings in high jinx ~
  willow trees hula dance

spring stars waltz the sky
 wink at comets streaking by ~
  corn planting moon sighs

rowdy zephyrs whoosh
 corralling spindrift laces ~
  crazy clouds spiral

shifting clouds speak riddles
 guess the shape of changing clouds  ~
  new green shoots tickled

whirlwind pranks tumble
 hijack dandelion puffs ~
  moonbeams tease midnight
