On a newborn lawn
the first weeds of
Spring

Who but you
my Lady of Green
could wear these common
flowers, with such
majesty?

Ah, and who but you, Poet Supreme,
Can describe the wonders of Spring.

We still have masses of snow here, but I know those dandelions will be peeking out in a month or so to cheer us up!
