Micro Poems by Chris Bullard

Apology to Spring

I’m happy my words have not damaged the tulips.
Despite my bungled attempts at praise,
they rise more sublime than I can say.

Love

A traveler found a hot spring in the desert.
Its taste was bitter, so he passed it by.
Later, he died crying for water.
