marzo

by Maria Massarella

starry-starry night here
most rare so clear a
starfilled sky

perpetual are nightmists
monotonous greys haze in  
autumnwinter

now spring prelude wakens
birdsong - brushes nascent
verdancy

robes anew the branches - re
composes flavoured symphonies 
in ritual

azuregold splendor - leaves
will rustle their dance again
roam me

as they did then when

Onece again, your visions are clear. You described the sky so vividly that iI can almost see it. Beautiful piece, as usual!

The coupled words work wonderfully in this piece. Vivid! I wish Spring was here already too!

roam me

Beautiful way to think. I can imagine this as a request to a love.

As I am under my Oak (where else am I ever, right Maria?) the wind is rustling the leaves and the finches I tell you about are finding clothespin bags to fluff into a fresh new home. Quiet, I remain captivated. Gleefully so. Your poem stirs the morningness of everything.

You illustrate how the seasons sustain poetry Maria :) Being something of a winter fetishist, I tend to overlook the greys; spring, another wondrous colour in the ebb and flow of nature's palette.

"robes anew the branches" is such a lovely expression of new growth. Would that all our branches anew the robes of spring. Beautiful.

This feels like a painting in transition from autumnwinter to spring. I love this effect.

Marzo..a month and a name close to me and mine...all rendered beautifully under your hand, Maria, but what else is new?
