yesterday open-toed sandals
and opening tulips old lovers
come to me in dreams this morning
fresh snow whitening the mountains
the paper tells me bulltrout and cut-
throats will find more water flowing
through the losing reach between
the mainstem river and spawning
gravels green exploding skies
above Iraq elderly ladies show off
their May-Day hats plasticly enflowered
and a scientist provocateur is remembered
as a nucleus of dissension are there rivers
are there tulips in Fallujah, in Najaf?

& thank you, Patia, for "open-toed". I had the sandals, but "open-toed" was just what was needed with "opening tulips".

I had noticed that. Wasn't going to say anything, though. I like how creativity is "catching," whether conscious or not.
