Spring Knocking

by Kristina Woodhill

When gophers begin
to plow our pasture's depths,
seeds advertise for wind and wing

billy goat next door
stinks to high heaven,
lucky stars, so far, so far

black cat races breeze
up and down naked ash tree,
head-down nuthatch startles

little neighbor boy
dog and ball,
each other's plaything

Very sweet lady! Animals and younger children are ready to play. I do recall waiting for the weather to change enough to be able to "play ball".
