hopping across the lawn,
the purring of...

spring cleaning,
spring planting,
spring pruning,

bees, 
butterflies,
allergies,

campfires,
marshmallows,
smores,

spring break,
school is out soon,
happy tired children,

the smell of flowers,
fresh spring rain,
first mowed grass,

just a few of my favorite things!

Patience

Here is irony.
Patience waits for no one.

lines...vines
limbs
hair
fingers
sheets
blankets
couches

streets
signs
misgivings

an oven
a burner
a melted finish
and a perpetually unmelted finish

longings
clutchings
graspings
open doors 
unopened doors
closed doors
slammed doors
cracked open...
