Released from the house
the cat dashes, frantic
to roll on the lawn.

it's not just the old joke
that makes me smile.

Roof tiles on the lawn--

make me restless also.

April 27: First greens

Bright green sprouting chives--
not surprised the restless cat
wants to graze on them.

April 24: Cathance River

High water. On the banks:
tight buds of mayflowers,
single kinglet singing.
