Crafty Spring

 

Spring drips in and
all growth becomes riddled with 
desire for warmth,
ridden with need for having more.

Freshly risen, green
gets liquid-addiction, an invisible 
draw makes each sward
swoon for regular fixes of water.

Crafty Spring knows 
plants crave doses so being fickle 
he drops trickles used 
to tease shoots upwards for fuel.

Potent, he opens
cores formerly hidden, then the
illicit physician lopes
in to flippantly dominate flora. 

Bold, he impregnates
the inactive deep sleep of nature,
forcing in wet sensuous
potions to unclothe closed petals. 

Young Spring hangs around 
to tickle ground\'s fancy yet Sol\'s
hot passion he fears,
so as heat rises he disappears.
