Every spring,
            the muse returns with energy
     to her castle
     to open the secret corridors
     closed up all winter
                 –            only she knows
     the secluded passageways
hidden behind tapestry
             beneath growth
             between books

In spring she dares to whisper
    for winter’s fortress, now melted away
       lays her skin’s secrets bare
               her privacy tethered in silk      
    translucent in the light
                   hair of gold, breast of milk
       lips are loose, hips tight
  sins of youth, wrongs right
she kisses the mind
                   and spins her threads
                       day into night
