Rites of Spring

In like a lion
out like a lamb.
The season has reason
to ask who I am.


Clean out the closets,
the cabinets the car.
Time to  rediscover
just who you are.

Madness of men
in bright colored shorts
gracefully moving
down basketball courts.

A nice equal balance
of both day and night
We're finally centered
We're finally right.


In like a lion
out like a lamb.
The season has reason
to ask who I am.
