The Souls of Spring’s Children

*

softly, whispering

featherfalls on silent stone

winter, gravity

…

lost in the fog, birds

grieving morning voicelessly

remembering love

…

dead diamonds, ditches

glittering cold promises

fossil furrow froze

…

darkness, deepening

the womb and the grave hiding

secrets and shadows

…

in the ground, waiting

the souls of springs children sing

muffled lullabies
