Your appearance
is timely,
I have waited long
to see your triumphant push
against the hardened earth
to see your folded petals
emerge from their cocoon.
Breathless,
I stand watching –
counting your leaning appendages
memorizing the periwinkle lines
that trace across your back.
I may snap a photo,
camera raised
with care and caution,
but similarly –
as I’m watching,
I am writing a poem.
Words come alive
at your embrace
and also, I
raise my painter’s brush,
though I am not an artist.
I paint the edges
of your essence
upon my own soul.
Today,
is just another day,
one – among many
but I found it
ever more valuable
finding joy
in your presence.
