New Life



Today at noon
butterflies came back
waltzing with daffodils
and daisies
on the lawn

there is a new melody 
in the air
packed with birds
chirping
and far away songs
of unknown insects

the snowy shroud of Winter
is exiled 
on mountain tops
and hope
is springing back
in rosebuds
and shy lizards
basking 
in the sun

a thousand-faced crowd
is peeping
through death
looking for 
a new life
