as spring....slowly....

begins to show signs of its arrival.... i feel the rebirth bursting ....bright colors...sunshine warming the earth.... the garden...of labor.... sweat and blood.... covered....thick...with autumns debris...crisp leaves of brown...red.... lay...loosely.... surrounding each...plant... providing protection from winters wrath... taking a break... within the walls....plaster covered hands.... the sun calls to me.... kneeling...down to greet....springs growth... bulbs carefully placed beneath the dirt....emerging...with such strength... in every shade of green...reaching over....to clear...the death...breathe... breathe....the tear...slips away...falling onto.... a new...day...of daffodil...sunshine....

simple pleasures... reassurance... of life...love...the most precious.... things...come in the most simple packages.... smile... smile...mike joins me... as he feels the earths call.... pulling unwelcome weeds... bright rich green laced violet....wet... and supple... uncovering.... the new...the rebirth....his gardens awaken.... as spring...slowly...begins to show signs of its arrival...
