Throbbing Out Music in March

Modern poetry modern verse contemporary poetry contemporary verse modern poem contemporary poem
In winter in the bushes near the ground
The uguisu pushes out a note
Two times “chut chut.” Far from being profound
The sound comes out from tiny off-white throat
As if complaining that the spring is long
Away still. When that season comes, the notes
Become the archetype of perfect song.
The lower limbs and branches bear the throats
Of winged devotion to wide March days
And all they guarantee. Japan sings, filled
With tiny melodies. Their measure sprays
Across the air inside a woodland thrilled.
..Perhaps this tunefulness produces blooms
….On plum tree bark of singing petalled plumes.
