Spring has arrived!
 the view from glade to glade
  through woods, is no more.

 the sun is setting
  like a bad secret.

 up & about at sunrise,
  like diehard revellers.

 out over the river are
  Early Spring green.

a lone pine stands --
 mangled and misshapen --
  above other trees.

a sparrow alights,
 investigates debris,
  flits away.

home to birds & squirrels,
 the tree holds life in every 
  crotch & hollow.

walking past 
 an echo of monks,
  i seek distinction.

in early spring,
 the river is twining streams,
  and tiny green isles.
