Spring at Last

A walk through the night

The path barely visible

But not the dog poop

Wind and winter

Outside the window

But a ladybug

Prevailing darkness

A hole in the morning sky

Bright light on the way

Can’t open Twitter

After the cyber attacks

Mainichi works, though

New direction sign

Multi coloured and glossy

No sign of the way

Noisy diesel truck

Scattering salt against ice

But winter has gone

Fresh yet soft spring breeze

Vibrating in the meadow

And the rabbit’s fur

This cold spring morning

Tree’s silhouettes without leaves

Still make a promise

Beech still wears fall leaves

The elder showing spring green

Skylark passes both
