Note to self: exercise....exercise ....exercise... three months of standing in front of a cash register is not exercise. Found out today how weak the arms are with some yard work. Sunday Easter day. A point between death and life winter and spring. If you spent the day outside and paid attention to all going on around you; you would have noticed a quiet day. The sounds of human activity subdued The grass is getting greener, trees are starting to open buds for leaves. Birds were singing but their voices were muted. The sun was shining and warm The wind was cool. Spring is here but still in its waking stage. When did spring start? Yesterday? Last night? Last month? or was it just yesteryear? When ever it was I saw it.

Spring Awakens

In Mountain valley

A pine does stand

cloaked in white

Roots burried deep

in mountain past

Orange burst

burns the night

Eagle leaps for

crystal skies

Feels the change

Feels the heat

In silent glide

it sees the diamond

in morning light

Pure of heart

it frees a call

from primal soul

The bond is broken

From pine tree needle

the diamond falls

First drop of water

starts it all
