Hums a tune of love and springtime lost,
For now the seasons of her greying hair is Fall
Flecked with harbingers of coming frost.

And yet she reminisces of her early years,
Courtesan of rare erotic arts,
Remembering...

a buzz like bumble

singing springs songs quietly
Her songs I shall mumble

Once I lay neatly my body
Please do not disinter

Dappling as leprosy upon the facia,
Before the sea, mistress of life, licks and eats the slate,
Sucking mortar into the crests of waves.

every flower begins to open up
The weddings begin, producing spring brides
Now, the birds who left begin to fly home

The merry times ended with the winter
So now every child returns...
