The Hope That Spring Inspires


Every fragrant May,

the hope that spring inspires
gives voice to my deepest desires,
allowing Soul to lead the way
and set my spirit free.

Head’s analysis
of all my mortal needs
no longer, the heart, supersedes;
this ends the near-paralysis
that had a hold on me.


The darkness of the night

and Saturn’s binding rings
reduced the span of my wings
and hindered me in flight.

The longer days of light
and warmth that sunshine brings
give rise to passionate flings;
the future’s now in sight!


Summer’s fiery days

of basking in the sun
make way for the evenings of fun,
when inspiration interplays
with music, wine, and dance.

Neptune’s mystic haze
leaves certainties undone,
but that is how daydreams are spun
of purple threads and golden rays;
they turn the wheel of chance….


Once Mercury, Venus enchants,

I’ll live in Jupiter’s expanse;
there, I’ll never want for passion,
music, wine, or dance!
