Bishop Peter
Doorway to Spring
growing thing, splitting
tender shoots
soft, luminous
starlike seedling curling
from its meteor cavern
needing so little warmth
nebula heart prickled
gelatinous in dormancy
I lift nearer the offering
aroma puncturing me
sharper than stark branches
until I relax. . .
regain my earthly senses
~
For J . . .

Author's Note
The first flower of Spring isn't always a daffodil towering soil, but a star illuminating trees.

The first stanza dreamily rolls off the tongue and the momentum never stops due to your choice of wordage ending in "ing".
I'm intrigued by the title; the name Bishop Peter isn't familiar to me. I'm all up in Google's business trying to learn more,
I'm thinking hard about Spring, eager for it to arrive! 💜🌼🌳🌻

A floral treat that can entice one to their garden...beautifully written Ahavati.
