THE DAY of the POEM: SPRING 2pIC ROOM OF SONG AND LOVE

OVERBEARINGLY dull, frigid days of winter,RAIN that palled, and cold that ached,LIFE stalled, and nothing doing,and then the SPRING,

the DAY of the POEM.pIC   THINK  SPRING

The Day of the Poem, when life shouted and

Earth answering spoke eloquent LEAVE

Sand stammering twigs, and humming branches.Each blade of grass spokeof

DEW that outshone Diamonds,and each tiny leafwaved to a flower BELOWAS the POEM began to GROW.

The day of the POEM!

and what melodies

fluted on the wind,  played among the trees,skipped across the grass,and broke upon the SEA.POURED from animals throats,trilled from lilting wings

and echoed from the Earth, in her answer.EARTH answered LIFE with leaves and grassand fluttering nests, and sucking young.

PIC MORNING Glories and in sun and shadow or where NIGHT had BENT its languid KNEESEach heart THROBBED and each leaf BOBBE

to the surge of the POEM.

PIC LADY POET

BEAUTY is more than beauty

when SPRING COMES,and EARTH answers LIFEwith the DAY of the POEM
