Springtime's Wench

In the dusting of the Springtime
Fate spawns a tale of passions need
To instigate with warming touch
The flowering of longing seed

Love’s tenderness adrift and pure 
Awaft on every evening breeze
Sweet scented thoughts of yesterday
Soft whimsy’d memories to seize

Awakening a season’s lust
For life entices springtime’s wench
Bathe in my gentle falling rain
Our humid passions let us quench

In the dusting of a Springtime’s
Sweet scented thoughts of yesterday
