Poem: Hope in embryo

"By the sweat
of thy brow"
and the magnifying
hand of God -
The joyous,
wondrous
beauty of Spring!
Bulbs bloom
in a multiplicitious
painted array.
Flower gardens
abound -
In an infinite
hue.
Apricot tree
popcorn blossoms.
Pulling off
the blanket
of winter.
Tilling the earth -
Soil sifts
through fingers.
Dirt,
trapped 
under nails.
Weeding 
and trimming.
Industrious Planting:
Flowering plants,
climbing roses,
fruit trees,
and life sustaining 
crops.
Blessed birth
and maturation
of freshly 
soiled starts -
hope in embryo.
