Images taken from space
Show the earth lit
In a glowing blue halo
But on a spring day
Its hard for me
To imagine
There’s not a flaming beam
Of green light engulfing the stars
Powered by trees
Leaves aflutter in the wind
Rejoicing in their arousal
The wooded earth, speaking its joyful hymn
To the universe in a color
Reserved only for spring
