Spring Secret Passage
By Sotto Poet
Spring rain falls akin to a gentle mist
Soaking the earth with every twist
Beneath the soil, a world unknown
Where life takes root, and seeds are sown
As drops seep through the dirt and clay
A secret passage starts to form its way
Tiny tunnels, winding and vast
A network of life, that’s meant to last
In this hidden world, creatures thrive
Burrowing deep, to stay alive
Worms and beetles, ants and slugs
All living together, in cozy dugouts
The rain brings nourishment, to the soil
A gift of life, that nature does uncoil
With every drop, the passage grows
A wonderland of secrets, no one knows
As the sun shines, and the rain fades away
Spring secret passage is still here to stay
A world within a world, hidden from sight
A reminder that life is always taking flight.
