Tightly furled like clenched
fists, tentative red-tipped buds
sway on bare branches.
Stiff spring breeze

Easter basket
Malted milk eggs, Peeps,
solid bunnies (eaten ears
first) hide in fake grass.
Easter
What do bunnies and
chocolate have to do with
a resurrection?
Prodigal daughter
She’s coming home, train
speeding through the heartlands, back
to where we miss her.
Early daffodils
Like green periscopes
tiny shoots peer from muddy
beds searching for sun.
Daylight savings spring ahead
Night pushed back, a dark
blanket kicked aside as the
sun stays wide awake.
Almost spring
Snowpack seems solid
but underneath, droplets sing
of melting caverns.
May day
When’s the right time to
wash winter blankets? Last night
I saw snowflakes fall.
Dog tired
Our longer springtime
walks knock him out. There he lies
fat happy fur child.
First warm day
Rake leaves left over
from fall. Clean porch furniture.
Spring into action.
