Spring has many calling signs
Like flowers and birds and sun
Or getting home to find
Thirty cars at your neighbor's for fun

For every spring and summer
The family across the street
Plays mariachi louder than a speaker
With their entire extended family to greet

Trickling streams released from ice
The return of feathered friends above
Blossoms of plum and cherry sprouting
Rays of sun captured in morning fog

Where does this infant season take you?
To pastures of wild flowers as far as you see?
Along creeks buzzing with young flies and bees?
This infant season is my favorite time to live

Take these weary bones and let them
Soak in the season's infant rainfall
Now is the time for rebirth and
Revitalization of the heart

Thoughts take off
From dandelion head
I lost them
but found one
In the palm
of your hand

sunlight brings these blessed moments
and i'd think twice before sleeping if these
cherry blossoms held me the way
i wish you would

Sun, commencing to rise
from the curved & rigid horizon
Birds streamed through
the sky dyed clear blue

Awaken on cue
one by one, they bloom
A fireworks display
From a bird's eyeview

Chain reaction of colors
seeping through their petals
Illuminated by the sun
as the lustrous hue shines

Branches splattered pink shade
forming a five arc shape
Decorated each path
at the land of the rising sun

The robins chirp as
Bees busily buzz by
The sun gently warms the grass and
A breeze rustles waking trees.
Chipmunks scurry in the cool air.
The creek gently roars while
Squirrels hurriedly run tree to tree
The sun peaks through dark clouds
Promising rain.
Dogs roll through mud
And children splash happily after them

I can't help but smile
At the joyful scene.
It help stirs my hope that
Maybe
the sun can thaw my frozen heart too
