A Seasonal Reposting.....

April’s Purpose


His aversion to change
In awe of April's perpetual timetable
creating life and color from flesh and mud
trumpeting reproductive growth
hawking sex for young zealots
creating debt from hormonal folly
a new generation of repeaters

Her surrender to conceiving forces
be it human animal or plant
products of fertilized conception
feeding tending shaping
new life in nesting
survival at all costs
begins again in April

Furtive activity of no plan
creating procreating
nature art and mankind vying
for material and substance
contending for excellence
boastfully beginning
one more April crop for harvesting


2002 F William Broome

Dear Bill:

Don't I just love this one. I'm so happy you re-posted it. You bring depth to the beginnings of life in the yearly cycle. "His aversion to change in awe of April's perpetual timetable" Great! I'll try to remember this, when I kick and scream at the smell of fertilizer and the upturning of the soil.

Kathy
