Dressed in dripping rags, but bearing bright promise
(12 lines)



 April

Spring quickens
life bubbles between the rocks
icy freshets erupt from sodden slopes
engorged to rage by incessant vernal drizzle
boiling, roiling, leaping down the mountain
flowing, slowing, pooling on the plain
subsiding softly into stillness
that waits to reflect
Summer blooms
