Change creeps cautiously across the fenland,
Fat drops of March rain washing the night
Of February's grey and dismal ruin.
On frost-bruised lawns, where foxes play
Like murderous peasant princes,
Crocuses unfurl their tiny blaze,
Sublime sparks of colourful divinity defying
The morning's lingering looks to winter.
We feel the shift of earth, of air,
Smiling as we dance in daydreams
Through tomorrow's worlds of possibility,
And, somewhere beyond the hills,
The low dawn light on barren fields is
A welcome glance of spring.
