Damp spring

this weather — so damp —
it's a postage stamp licked a little
too enthusiastically
and affixed to the envelope
that holds the letter
just begging Spring to come
her presence is sorely missed

roots are the sprawling cursive
writing that spells out her address
the smudges are impatience
red wax of hope's been sealed
and pressed
