Psithurism

They say this word is obsolete
But I don’t know how that can be
When it creates a thought complete
About the woods surrounding me

Making New Trees
_____________________________________
Chartreuse catkins sway in the breeze
Waiting for a wind gust
The strategy of many trees
Avoiding need for lust
Dingle dangle through them wind flows
Pollen moving as the breeze blows
Dingle dangle
Dingle dangle
Where it may go nobody knows
*
Chartreuse catkins sway in the breeze
Pollen blowing around
No need for the efforts of bees
Set far above the ground
Swinging swaying dust releases
Gathers in corners and creases
Swinging swaying
Swinging swaying
With each gust the chance increases
*
Chartreuse catkins sway in the breeze
Causing irritation
Triggering in others a sneeze
And exasperation
Flutter quiver from way up high
Pollen clouds where songbirds fly
Flutter quiver
Flutter quiver
Creating new catkin supply.

Hell yes! 6 more weeks of winter!

Wind
Bites cheeks
Nips noses
Pushes riders
Sways lifts, moves snow, tests layers, adds challenge.
