Spring '13 TOC
What new spring is born and reborn? Is there a new burst of
liquid beneath the earth?
At last wondrous Walden’s Pond empties forth, epic and natural,
Streaming and squirting, teeming and churning
The blue gold that sallies up two tiers and drops tears down
That quenches the thirst of humanity even when they do not
Know that they are thirsty,
The water that sources and outsources all life,
Refresh and recycle, keep rushing,
Absolving, purifying, baptizing, sanctifying,
Nurturing, irrigating, satiating, extinguishing,
Fortifying resolve and renewal to move with nature’s tongue,
To listen, glisten and reflect upon your generosity
Wet in the concrete container for all to imbibe,
Dynamic in density, compelled to leap in the air
And return to the bubbling basin, a swirling emergent well.
