WHEN
Before Reason and Logic came to stay
When Feeling and Fear had joint lease
We had a silent, joyful hope each day
Wide-eyed optimism gave an easy peace
Intoxicating honey suckle fragrance at night
Distant whippoorwills echoed their unseen love
Spring not bound by calendar--our year long delight
Starry orbs brilliantly shone for us in the limitless above
When did Spring become so difficult to be found
When did dreams become buried by winter snows
When did our futures become so mortality bound
When comes Eternal Spring--only the Lord knows
