Reflections on Spring


There's something about pussy willows that just says Spring.
Their stark softness popping out on slender sticks.
Gently they sway in the afternoon breeze.
A silent chorus reflecting the sun's warming rays
They reach out to the pond's edge
Beckoning the mallards closer.
We are Spring,
we are Spring!
I hear their song.
I wonder if the mallards do.
