Popular Spring Poems

1.
 
the delicately hardened  
strawy hued dry achenes  
 
 
had set their route..  
unknown  
unpredictable..  
 
 
wind steers  
their destiny..  
 
 
freely parachuting  
long to shores unknown..  
 
 
as they land.. just only their heady  
basal seed remains .. losing their  
angelic wings .. that had swam  
through the wild uproarious airs  
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.
 
she-  the apartment dwelling  
beautiful...

so now we’re a couple of old  
pensioners  
sitting in the park feeding the ducks,  
reading the newspapers,  
aware that the international situation  
looks bad  
and trump’s america has changed  
sides of bread on which we muse and question  
our choice of sandwiches  
from tesco’s,  
I’d have preferred mine with  
french mustard, she says  
 
 
 
 
 
 

Winter gave way to summer
last week

I guess that's the way weather works now

But today dawned beautifully spring
and asked nothing more of me
than a bike ride
and a nap

Contented as a cat
sleeping peacefully in perfectly cool breezes
resting easy in the knowledge
I don't have to miss you
anymore
