the woods in spring

the urgent haste of life to have its turn
luxuriant forest eager for the light
angry at coming of the so short night

the stars in silence far too distant burn
brutally cold indifferent to the plight
the urgent haste of life to have its turn

leaves and flowers eagerly now yearn
for every moment of the day's delight
and hate returning of the winter night
the urgent haste of life to have its turn
