The Seasons - “Spring”
Poem submission by Nathan Skky
Let us be Spring —
with flowers in our hair
and sap in our veins
and the song of Life
on our lips, loosed
as a babbling brook
and birdsong.Let us be joyous
with the sun pouring
from our eyes;
with the wind whispering
words in our ear
as we dance,
swaying like the trees
in the breeze.Yes, let us be Spring
with rose-petal skin
and eyes so green
which pierce the morning.
Let us rise from the earth
with a song in our heart
and live again,
renewed.

a rabbit and a bird
waltzing above the trees.
The animals slide
across the cornflower sky,
dancing too close to the sun.
“No,”…

- The tiny, ridiculous victory of not sending a drunk text
- A free drink, bought by a…
Someone come sleep with me. It’s fucking cold, dude!
Blah… Valentine’s Day
Please go away
I think I’ve been had…
