Eight-line Poems

Song of Seasons

Song of Seasons

Spring arrives, white-tipped and rattling
like swans preening in the reeds
while summer opens the vaulted sky
the grass flushed green and sighing
until autumn strews starlings like seed
and the winter wind will follow after
so the Earth turns in its wending path
harmonic revolutions of the seasons.
