MAPoet: The Leaves Begin to Fill the Trees Again

The Leaves Begin to Fill the Trees Again

The leaves begin to

fill the trees again.

The branches hang

differently, as if

they are showing

off new clothes.

The green stands out

against the clouds.

The rustle returns

when the wind blows.

I know all these things

will happen each spring.

Yet, as they do, I

can't help but feel

the excitement anew.
