some thoughts on spring

Write a poem about Spring and April.

spring is gardens
and pollen gathering around,
thick as ash after a volcano.
the world turns green
and greener. we breathe green
and see it coating the ground,
until we till it under into
brown, and plant seeds
for the water to rot
and the squirrels to devour.
spring is finals and graduation,
marching in the sun,
shivering in robes
for the remnants of snow.
spring is rebirth
and birth,
hope and death. life
and pollen, mixed together
into a headache and a running nose.
