      first warmth of spring

      I feel as if

      I have been asleep

      first warmth of spring

      under cracking ice

      the jawbone of a dog

      crocuses

      where last week

      the snow lay thick

      the spring breeze –

      the paper flowers also

      tremble

      into the sea I launch

      a piece of driftwood –

      with great ceremony!

      spring rain

      a yellow oil-drum

      bobbing down the river
