Day 14--Flourishes--NaPoWriMo with Magaly Guerrero 2015

Flourishes

When comes the easy rain,

washing folds and crevices,

leaving behind the scent of promise,

Earth turns wanton,

begging to be touched,

furrowed into climax

so sweet seeds can take hold.

The breeze blows with lust,

pollen to payload, 

tree to tree, plant to plant,

expectations rising for

fruitful tastings.

The Queen flies,

finding fertility in the sky,

while workers make love to pistil and stamen

in hope of future gold.

Blood sizzles pungent, spicy.

Breath labors shallow and ragged.

Firelight embroiders sweat

with magic

powered by the beat

of many drums.

The Eternal Round

adds another flourish.

Today's prompt was to write about at least 3 things you enjoy doing in April. I am a gardener, nature lover, bird watcher, among other things.
