April dribbles - 12
Squirrels ate the last blooms of spring--
Winter still pouring ice-driven streams
To wash away tears. The thing is,
Summer thought it was dreaming.
Squirrels, scared this year’s weather might bring
Brown grass for dinner instead of green,
Quickly devoured the last blooms of spring
While winter poured cold-weather streams.
I guess it's sort of, almost, vaguely similar to a triolet. But the squirrels are real and they just at the last yellow crocus.
