Sinless Spring
It is dull and barren
A Melancholy, listless day
Nature had sent the sinless spring
Into momentary silence, as if to shame
There are millions of nature’s mysteries
That I do not understand nor lay claim
The harsh now billowing west wind’s eyes
Engulf white-tipped frothy waves and collide
The midnight storm showers and lightning did mate
The fresh rain melts lavender petals in my wake
I was entranced by its walls of gloom, dark and dim
Manhood beats gallantly finally ridden of their sin
Childhood eternal biding silently
The lovely lulling sea almost swept me away
If not for the hypnotizing dance of the sea
It slapped a salty soul-mist across my cheeks
My kindred spring soulfully awoke from slumber
To dancing clouds of joy that sliced the thunder
The sweet art of marmalade skies
Smiled back at me with June eyes

Nature’s Hope – Heather Mirassou
Blue haze surrounds
She looks ready to birth
She is only
Half-Crescent tonight
I can see her
Slow
Methodical movements
As she readies her bed
She is alone
Her mate will be home soon
She will wait patiently
Until they are one
Before she gives birth
To her swollen
Ghost white belly
You will see her too
When she is full, bright
Glowing, shining
We will all be in awe
At the exact moment
Her baby arrives
It is the unknown
We never tire of
Instead we
Look forward
What is to be?
As a Bronte sister once said;
“Hope’s spell glorifies”
Like the young
To this aging eye
Full of billions, trillions
Of mysteries
The fearful
The fair
The young
The old
She soothes us
Lull’s us
hypnotize us
Brings us
Qualities
To conquer
Our fears
She is sister to me
Sister to faith
Nature is her mother
Her father the Universe
When I look upon the
Ocean and Sky
So vast and mysterious
She holds my hand
Makes me strong
Makes the moon ready
To bare
If I am not feeling
Comfort
Or I am afraid
She becomes my guide
When my fate is
Uncertain
I have lost
My way
Hope Sustains
No matter my path
My weakness
Becomes strong
As I wait
For spring
I elate.
