SPRING
Stay tuned!
A Song of Springtime -
John William Waterhouse
(the young boy’s perspective)

my hands delicately rustle the
weeds, my fingers eager to
rouse and awaken the fallen
cherry blossoms;
yet, they openly defy against
my touch, to my delicate
soft prod;
how come?
does nature feel
proud, as to have told me –
once again – that they will
never bow down to us and
obey?
(you win you win you win)
i kindly let their fierce spirits,
bask in its victory, for a
moment; do they think
i am walking away in
shame?
are they not aware i am
en route to provoking
another wild, feral little
being of nature?
