Spring, the Benefit of Wasps
(Spring) The Benefit Of Wasps
Spring is Fridays
nine O'clock gulump
of cool beer
fresh blue jeans
promises of pleasure, .
buds on a twig
trembling soft air –
first touch of loves
fingertip on flesh.
torture of anticipation
ecstasy and hum
diamond green
and magic moonlight
painting on silver.
A song birds damp breath
a warmth of
Saturday morning bedding
Mmmmm of
stretching limbs
warm fruit in azure skies
late night thunderstorms.
shifting shadows
filled with a child's voice
dandelions that smile
hot tea, sugar crystals
sprinkled on stone
for the benefit of wasps
...And all of this
before leaves roll over
like woollen shawls
on bony brittle shoulders
...and all of this.
before spring
will come again
