The Birth of Spring

.                        THE BIRTH OF SPRING


                    To see and breath the birth of spring,
                    Ripe with the taste of soil and grass
                    You feel the freshness on your fingers.

                    Birds chirp pieces out of the morning
                    Silence, and the speckled colored bass
                    Float in lakes or up and over fly 

                    Painted waters of pebbled streams.
                    In violet night, stars shine like glass                              
                    And the sweet smell of earth lingers        
                 
                                                            
                    The crickets and whippoorwills sings
                    The songs of the virginal lass
                    And a boy clasping her fingers.
