wind

when spring sun severs ribbon 
with winter 
and ties a bow to warmth 

when snow dissolves into thawing earth 
waking waiting roots 

when low pressure invites the rushing in 
of stinging north or melting south 

then leaves tumble across grass 
branches bend and sway 
small birds struggle to find perch 
hearts soar tugging string 
unrolling in practiced hands 

for summer’s coming 
on-rushing
