more poetry

Hi, everyone!  It's been awhile since I posted a poem last, maybe because I haven't really been feeling it lately.  But I think I'm ready now.

Summer is almost here.
She's come for us again--
Waited all this year
Just to be let in.

It's almost funny, when
You think about just how
The disappearing "then"
Becomes a sudden,
surprising
NOW.

And the leaves that fell grow back
and the cold that came
Is not the same
And the pale blue nights
turn hot and black
And all around is green, green, green
Like the prettiest picture you've ever seen
And you feel like everything,
Everything,
Again.

Is just about to begin.
