The shroud annointing now begins. Yesterday I put away my snow shovel for the warm season in Minnesota.Earth glow illuminates
mist morning light on winter tree
still barren, stripped by storm.
In weeks new buds
and emerald shroud annoints
as spent members, broke,
accept the earth again as home.
Finis. Complete.
Ligtht in seasons cycle
follows sleep.

Thank you Ardi - this was wonderful. Especially "Sometime
ReplyDeleteBefore the first buds open
And leaves emerge from sap-rich twig
There is the Light that anoints
This new awakening."
Also the image of the bird's claim on the marsh. I see the same here on this land. They sit perched at the highest twigs, singing their hearts, just thrilling and trilling the buds to open... and the bud's burst forth.
