Harmony of Seasons: Spring
by Peter Menkin

February rains descend,
weigh light upon the land

bringing sparkle, refreshment
needed this season.

The air is clear, lies close against
the season's turn towards Spring

as sense and signs awaken
the sleeper in me: Arise.

I must yield to the rhythm of earth.
Open my heart to mercy for others.

This rain refreshes and aids the call to live;

be swift, my mind,
to gain the harmony of good weather,
a gift for us, this returning and renewal.
