Analysis of One
RonaldL.BunchJr. 1982 (Grand Rapids)
Sky shattering,
Rainbows maddening.
The stars glistening
Through the eve of nightmares
And rushing anguish.
Starlit leaves
Whimper down
Where all is golden
And lay a crown.
A winner arises
Above old man winter.
There rises one sprout,
One leaflet,
And one flower.
