    Spring Hope

     The Great North Wooods is greening;
    terminal buds smell sweet.
    Feathered Folk returning are;
    a welcome springtime treat.

    The River's ice will melt soon;
    the flow may go astray.
    Some sleeping creatures waken
    to greet the fresh new day.

    The frozen ground is thawing.
    Plant shoots are pushing through.
    The hope of new beginnings;
    rekindled under skies of blue.

    here we are again, dear Earthly, bringing us all, another camera-picture, perfect moment that came knocking on this morning's screen like a view of you where I am not, and I think maybe the air is cleaner where you are... for there are more green things breathing close, clean lung-needs... .and the animals... too amazing, like being in a free zoo... we have a few cats and birds outside, but they do remind me of the wilder ones, in the place where cement is not laid too thick, n rich..

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
