Poem: Filling Blank Space

Ready for anything
Ready for Spring
Prepped for new ambitions
Prepped for new missions

Sunrise beckons hordes of crows
Dew on the grass reflecting sun rays
Trash from a car poured on to the street
All evident to my all powerful gaze

My mind is a blank slate
Waiting to be filled
New and old rush in
Begin the thrill

Tears on my cheeks
Wisened and wrinkled
Years on my skin
With vigour still mingled

To all holidays I remain quite numb
A day is another day on the calendar
But a day can be useful for building an empire
The little one I call my blastometer
