Spring does not occur in verdant shocks and celebrations of garden blooms and animals ******* it's a slow parade it's a hostage situation
there is a crow dodging traffic for roadkill there is a boy who loves a girl who doesn't love him
The Twilight Man finally learns how to cross the street alongside school children
The thin ice which still resides on the concrete dares you to be the first to traverse it
and the snowbanks which lay before you feign alpine hazard
and I wonder what the naked tree branches are saying as they reach for the sky with twisted fingertips with their meteorological braille we confuse for variations of shade
they say give us back the sun and we'll give you our leaves there is a book in each tree we do not cut down and we read it as we breathe a forest is a library we breathe
