  Today, this spring
  Is time for walking on the soft earth
  In sounds that sweeten the air
  And reach beyond the long dark sleep;
  For sun to warm the cheek,
  And quicken breath;
  A time to shed the griefs
  That brown the spirit of beginning;
  To trust the restless energy
  Demanding space and speak of life,
  My own, which recreates itself in you.  less
