The Footsteps of Spring - Botanist

Nature’s unseen behemoth

Plodding inexorable

Its invisible passing marked only

By the Footsteps of Spring

Dotting the landscape

Along coastal paths serpentine

Tiny yellow patches

Quintuple inriflorescent domes

Umbel borne flowers

Like jutting floral stars

Signaling Arctopoides' perpetual journey

Sanicle Prince, He

With every step, heals the land
