Hide and Seek

Nighttime clouds must veil the stars,
As we must veil our thoughts

And winter's clouds hide winter gales,
Until the sunshine's brought

And spindly branch of broken trees
Must scratch the shadowed days;

Until the spring arrives in wind,
When green uncovers May.

It comes, as this verse, with fine gifts, does May..... this piece has a simple elegance which makes me feel May is already playing it's song.
