Let's hold each little spring, this book "Spring," in the palm of our hands, allowing the power of spring to grow a different landscape within us as we mature.
How else can one write about "Spring"?
Poet and painter Ma Ni Ni Wei says:
Spring is a symbol. Good things are spring, vitality is spring.
Regardless of winter's cold or summer's heat, spring is always hidden in life.
And life has taught me to feel the spring that isn't in these four seasons, to hear spring from any scarcity.
Those little things that I type with my fingertips are spring; what I draw with my pen; what's on my cat - these are all my own springs.
This book collects three children's poems suitable for adults:
"Spring is a Sunny Morning," "Today I'm Going to Write a Spring Poem," and "I See Spring's House in My Hand."
From "What is Spring?"; to "Today I'm going to write a spring poem / because my mind is full of spring"; to finally connecting "spring's hand" to "mom's hand," from the very first spring of each life, the spring that was given, ultimately learning to give "spring" back.
"That is spring's hand / It is mom's eternal hand / The hand that always holds me
And it is me / Always holding mom's hand"
Each line of poetry is paired with an illustration, on the one hand solidifying the text, and on the other, using colors, brushstrokes, and character movements to lead us into a realm of imagery that needs no words, echoing the poem's mood.
Let's write a spring poem together.
