Fay Slimm - Springtime Dreams.

Scooping up dropped wings of unused fantasy
I contest the rest of winter,
.................................................and let spring
Declare war on same dark hourlong days, rank with
Damp seashore mist,
........................while I imagine spring-things.

Kissed with woven threads
........................................of golden sun-shiny
Skies, vision has plants outgrowing their neighbours,
While trees, re-frocked in greeny hues,
.......................................................... benignly
Spread lush re-growth around feeding flocks, braver
Imagery, out-running mind's hold,
.....................................................benefits me.

Re-dressed in skimpy clothes, tanning pallid skin,
I close winter's door
............................to let spring in, freedom seen
Means shortest days gone,
....................................and as scheming begins.
Fancy's bud bursts and rehearses springtime dreams.
