Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
As fresh as the new fern,
unfurling from its winding,
released from its clockwork
to greet the green spring
and wave feathered hands
in the shade of summer’s sun,
so flow the words from the pen
of the poet’s new song.
