Spring and All

 
 
 
  By the road to the contagious hospital
under the surge of the blue
mottled clouds driven from the
northeast—a cold wind. Beyond, the
waste of broad, muddy fields
brown with dried weeds, standing and fallen
 
  patches of standing water
the scattering of tall trees
 
  All along the road the reddish
purplish, forked, upstanding, twiggy
stuff of bushes and small trees
with dead, brown leaves under them
leafless vines—
 
  Lifeless in appearance, sluggish
dazed spring approaches—
     
  They enter the new world naked,
cold, uncertain of all
save that they enter. All about them
the cold, familiar wind—
 
 
  Now the grass, tomorrow
the stiff curl of wildcarrot leaf
 
  But now the stark dignity of
entrance—Still, the profound change
has come upon them: rooted, they
grip down and begin to awaken
