Another spring arrives
with endless opportunities
to watch the speed of life
accelerate,
to witness again
the miracles occurring,
intentionally taking time
to capture a few of the gifts
going by,
to wrap them up
in this poem
and give them
to you,
with the intended grace
by which they were received.
New birds returning,
wildflowers rising,
and children;
their faces
growing with promise.
