Blend & blur

2025 March 17th2020 January 28th

late winter and early spring blend and blur
in pleasant days and chilly nights
penetrating sun and gentle cool breezes
with stirrings of life, subtle and green —
mornings that light ever earlier rouse us, but
sunsets that still come in evening’s youth lull

  yellow-striped bee
  what do you see
  inside perfumed flowers?

  soul or sex or color
  food & imminent honey
  or just a job to be done?

  intoxicating pollen
  fragrant petals
  jewels of every hue?

  is it that what’s wild for us
  is just cubicle walls to you?
