spring’s finally here
with less than usual fanfare
are our hearts less glad

shall we grieve for what’s missing
or be thankful for what we have
spring’s finally here
with less than usual fanfare
are our hearts less glad
shall we grieve for what’s missing
or be thankful for what we have
such joy in heaven
those who seemed dead are alive
to be seen again
hold all things lightly
attachments cause suffering
let go when it’s time
life and death are the same coin
don’t fear metamorphosis
finally redbuds
announcing spring’s arrival
a good day to die
weather turning cold
nearly freezing new blossoms
cruel April Fool’s
