Hundreds of snowdrops
Flowering under old trees
Cold horses awaiting
Their food to be brought
Paint-flaking windows
Reflecting thin sunlight
Large piles of wood chopped
To warm up the freeze
Cows at the farm-gate
With milk-swollen udders
Birdsong awakening
An old hive of bees
Arthritic limbs crackle
The old cat’s awake now
One eye open
A paw stretched
Assessing the scene
Form:
WHAT IS IT? (triple Tanka)
it comes over you
like nothing you’ve ever felt
then you must ponder –
are conditions different?
is it because it’s springtime?
is it the birdsong?
do they sing so much sweeter?
is it the green-rush -
how bare places are hidden?
is it because it’s springtime?
is it that old love?
I should say old love made new
is that what it is?
oh! how the body responds!
yes! it’s because it’s springtime
Birds, up in the trees,
Chirping selves to please,
Flitting under eaves
Of the old gray house,
Cheer of you's like light
All a sudden bright.
Hearing gathers might
At Joy's carouse.
What does Winter say,
Snows now slunk away,
Sadness in dismay
At your quick hope?
Naught, for he was wrong
Stilling so your song,
Sitting icey long
Like an old grey pope.
Glad, be glad again!
Paint, be spread again!
Wrap the souls of men
Round the old gay house!
