It is April.
The leaves are coming in.
The grass is growing high.
Spring is learning what it is.
There is no cycle at work.
This has not happened before.
The plants have no memory.
Hornets inspect their buds
preparing new catalogs.
Every day someone new
sees you at the beginning,
wherever it is you begin.
In the yard, the garden.
On the side of the road.
You are remindful, you
who has no idea of
the long nights of winter,
who does not know itself
but is curious to know.
They say it’s beautiful.
