Because
it is almost the end of March
and because it is Still Cold
I can see snow in the park
alongside buds
Larry G said last week
there are always buds
no matter what else happens
and because a part of me knows
hope sits alongside all else
even Benjamin Netanyahu
we will so many of us
continue to try
and because it is almost the end
of March and the first
poem I remember ever writing
there were others but this
is the first I remember, from
Peck Grammar School
When spring comes
can we spring too?
