Late February - edit

[Knot]

.
Hi duke,
not that keen on the edit, I thought this

An Early Spring

warm wild winds
cloud suffocates cold
winter beheads itself ......... standout line, for me.

worked well by itself.

The remainder

Spring’s unstealthy early
pale darkness seems to seep
through blinds and bleeds
out hoarded health
leaving us listless
vainly awaiting Easter which
too many will not reach

sort of works, but I'm left wondering why (and quite possibly how) it 'bleeds out hoarded health' and the significance of Easter? 'Seeps' and 'bleeds out' seem rather similar (in physical process), and the former is a bit at odds with 'unstealthy' isn't it?

Spring unstealthy
pale darkness searches
through blinds and bleeds
our hoarded health
leaving us listless ......... why 'listless' and how will Easter change that? Obviously I'm missing something.
vainly awaiting Easter which
too many will not reach


Best, Knot
