In Expectation of Spring Valentine

If you cut them back
they only bloom again
how many of us can
say that and yet
isn’t that exactly
what we all do I mean
who won’t do spring
who won’t stretch
out a tendril or two
to some passing sun
and bid it stay just
a little longer each
new day I mean
do you really believe
life can be diminished
or prolonged that it won’t
just push death aside
and bloom again
