Natality

Beneath it all I feel her wake -
The fertile ground which gave me birth;
She's churning now, creating life -
Green stains the palette of the Earth.

From death comes life as petals burst
From paintbrush of the peaceful soil -
The sun smiles warmly at the scene
Produced by artful Nature's toil.

The fresh light sky is cool azure,
A bird's soft chirp sings sweet and clear;
The wind that sweeps my outstretched arms
Brings warmth that tells me Spring is here.

White weight lifts forth from my face,
My fingers spark with budding green,
I taste sweet air and watch the growth -
What bright rebirth we trees have seen.
