Stepping Into April
How do you feel
when stepping out?
Of a cold dark house
into this returning first spring
full-sun warm morning
just at fragrant dawn
Embracing your shoulders
neck
face
arms
hands
and your naked
cool green grassed
wet feet
You
squinting appreciation for FatherSun's
sacred enlightenment
promise
multi-regenerations greeting me
again
as He has spawned
co-arising deep gratitude
Resiliently penetrating
since FatherSun
first fertilized
organic MotherEarth's
black and brown-skinned
organic
ecofeminist
health is wombed eco-wealth.
How do you feel
when stepping out
into Earth's last first spring
full-sun morning?
warm
passionately resilient
warning
about summer's relentless
emerging heat.
