<div class="text-justify">Despite recent goings-on, I have been very much enjoying the beginning of spring. I think we could all use some beauty during a time like this. That which is defunct is recycled and bursts forth with unexpected vigor. Splits are healed, fractures sewn by the aether's humming light. </div>

<h2>I.</h2>

*A world mahogany, silver, and green
without my window breathes;
with just a touch of rose unseen
stirs the verdant spring.*

*All the wonders I have ever seen
—and ever shall—
embers slowly flickering
behind my mortal pall.*

Iron, dance with woodbine;
now stone, waltz anew—&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;with clover flower, sunshine,
the whole March through.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</center>

<div class=pull-right><h2>III.</h2>
<em>Radius of metal bone,<br>
a fine dust upon<br>
the broken avenue, alone<br>
betwixt the quiet lawn<br>
where I am wheeled by my whim<br>
over old ways, the while<br>
a new seam through long days<br>
the min'ral ivies hem.</em></div>
