Poem for May Day 2013

A SONG OF SPRING 05/01/2013


THE VOICE OF THE LOVER:
A frog he would a woo-ing go...

CHORUS OF CEDAR WAXWINGS:
Thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee.

THE VOICE OF THE LOVER:
In just-spring...

THE VOICE OF THE BELOVED:
Can you change the bag in the vacuum cleaner for me?

THE VOICE OF THE LOVER:
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white...

CHORUS OF HOUSE FINCHES:
You, you, oh, to be with you, be, oh, be, oh, with you, you, you.

THE VOICE OF THE LOVER:
Comes the fresh Spring in all her green completed...

THE VOICE OF THE BELOVED:
The carpet is wet there because the dog got sick.

THE VOICE OF THE LOVER:
...And let our winds / Kiss thy perfumed garments; let us taste...

CHORUS OF HOUSE WRENS:
Grrrrrrr.  With you.  With you.  With you.

THE VOICE OF THE LOVER:
From you have I been absent in the spring...

THE VOICE OF THE BELOVED:
The toilet is stopped up.
