Early Spring Sketch

March 11, 2021

The sun is gentle

There is still unmelted snow

Russian grandma

And the bugs that raise their butts in a race

Thick tree

And the boys in a fight

Gray wooden table drenched in sunlight

And me writing

Running man

But there is still a bunch of complicated details haunting my mind

Children

For one orange that have been repeatedly thrown heavily to the ground

And happy for that

Also happy for the colorful bubbles floating in the sky

Happy being with classmates after school

Happy for everyone else who is happy

Their happiness

Drilled into the soil

Climbed up high along the vines

Their happiness

Goes up the treetops

Standing on a branch

Greeting every trace of

The wind born from the snow
