Sorrel

Sorrel (s)peaks in early spring

before full thaw,

reminds a gardener,

wandering on winter legs

in mellow air,

there always was

hope resting there,

below straw and snow.

I love this, that fellow feeling of making the rounds every day to see what new green thing has peeked out. This line is wonderful: “wandering on winter legs”
