Ferns



A         week    of         sun       and
under               garage              eaves,
baby    fists     uncurl,            stretch
slender             hands               up
in         praise   of        feathers.
Armed with     lace,     palm
trees     without
trunks, theme
park for
lady
bugs.

Totally delightful... the shape of this poem is wonderful, playful as the words. Speaking spring into being.

These images are delightful. I like "baby fists uncurl," and especially "in praise of feathers."
