Day 3 Poetry Project

Noticings...I find myself noticing the small things around me simply because I am intentionally thinking about writing and more specifically about lines of poetry.  Here is what came to me after a walk in the woods...

Woods Walking

the hard slippery path
       of winter's lingering
spotted and speckled with
       patches of soft spring

pussy willows purposefully
       pushing
out
saying hello to the
          mud-stained puppies
and people passing by

I long to pick the pussy willows
        bring spring into my home
forcing away
         the long winter's remnants

throw open the windows
        come in! the outside
inside and out!
