Feast of St Matthias

On the feast day of Matthias

Trees start pumping like Goliaths

Their resinous elixir is a wonder

One can ponder

Whilst in staus insomnias

Endnote: February 24 is the feast of St.Matthias. He was the apostle chosen to replace Judas after his unlamented demise. Old weather lore maintains that he sends sap through the trees this time of year.
