Spring
Over the centuries, many poets have written about Spring. Spring is associated with awakening, love, blooming, flowering, many themes of abundance and an acceleration of life. This poem is my humble addition to the literature. It is to be read slowly with a gradually accelerando until the frenzy of spring-like abundance is overwhelming. At first, each word should be read with about five or more seconds of silence before the next word. At the conclusion, there should be no space at all between the words and the pace should be prestissimo. Enjoy.
