The Summons
The call goes out at sunrise.
Not to be ignored.
This command from the Mighty One…
an order that continues till sunset.
A directive, to rouse a season…
Spring.
A Summons that activates the flow of sap…
gallons of life-giving fluid to waken each tree.
Anti-gravity it moves toward the sky…
at the Summons.
Winter on the ground,
spring in each trunk.
A change, mustered by an invisible summons.
Activation of life, dormancy ending…
this Summons rallies buds, leaves and green.
There is no sound…no voice heard.
Only the wind breaks the silence.
Spring is called for…
God commands it.
