When Heritage Unfolds

The end of my hillbilly blues
sprigs of spring get new shoes
little bursts of new color appear
life refusing to die like small spears
shooting forth stabbing the heart of winter
with all its hues death loses to the sprinter
when buds splinter as sparkling water of life
warmer nights the moon shines on less strife
walking barefoot amongst the swelling trees
a scent of flowers showers hope of summer leaves
